Nigerian singer Asa recently performed at an event for President Bola Tinubu in France, and her song choice has sparked a lively debate. Asa sang “Eye Adaba,” a beautiful and captivating song that showcased her powerful voice and presence. However, some fans felt that she should have performed “Fire on the Mountain,” a song that critiques corruption, inequality, and societal struggles in Nigeria.
Given the country’s current challenges, including poverty and unrest, many argued that “Fire on the Mountain” would have been a more impactful and relevant choice. Asa’s performance was part of President Tinubu’s three-day diplomatic mission to France, where he met with global leaders to attract investments to Nigeria.
