Rapper and activist Falz is once again expressing his views, and this time, he is frustrated with the country’s lack of progress.
In a recent interview with HipTV, the outspoken entertainer lamented the fact that in 2025, Nigeria is still struggling with basic infrastructure issues. He did not shy away from describing the situation as ridiculous.
“The biggest thing practically speaking is the yield of electricity. It’s still wild. In 2025, we’re still dealing with up-nepa,” he said, referring to the familiar shout Nigerians make whenever power is restored — a clear sign of how abnormal power supply has become normalised.
He also pointed out the country’s poor drainage system.
“Any small rainfall like this, we have to be swimming around. It’s shameful.”
Falz described the entertainment industry as “mad,” noting that many people are untreated and struggling with mental health issues. He emphasized that while everyone has some degree of madness, it varies in severity.
In addition to sharing social commentary, the rapper opened up about a personal experience. He recounted an embarrassing heartbreak where he had made a reservation at a fancy restaurant, complete with flowers, only for the girl to reject him after dinner.
“I really so much like the girl… I thought we were on the same page, but apparently not.”
He also spoke about the pressure of carrying a famous name and how people used to associate his early success with his father, renowned lawyer Femi Falana.
“Eventually, I blew. I made a name for myself. When they see him now, they will say, ‘Falz’s dad.’”
