ReporterFela Kuti is King of political activism! Yes we agree. However, across the landscape of civic and political activism in Nigeria, only a handful of musicians and entertainers have made their mark. While some uncompromisingly used their microphones as megaphones for civil rights cum political activism, others are notably known to have actively participated in a number of civil protests.
Inspired by the renewed movement against poor governance and the controversies that trailed 2Face Idibia’s botched February 6, 2017 protest, FAB.NG, in a finical order presents 4 Nigerian musicians prominently known for political activism.
- Fela Anikulapo-Kuti
Outstanding in this category is the Afro-beat creator, music maestro and pan Africanist, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Fela is most famous for his strong stance against the powers that be and his musical activism. As described by Al Jazeera’s Massoud Hayoun, Fela’s music from time to time condemned the military and civilian government of his day.
Most of Fela’s songs ridicule mal-administration, corruption, abuse of power amongst the ruling class. Others accentuate civic rights and mental liberation from colonialism. Prominent amongst Abami-Eda’s critical songs are: Zombie, International Thief-Thief, Sorrow Tears and Blood, Authority Stealing, etc.
With his unwavering stance, Fela became a voice for Nigeria’s angst over poor governance, corruption and inequality. His music lyrics and tunes besides been sagacious; encouraged and taught people to be socio-politically aware.
Unknown to many, Fela being unsatisfied with his musical activism, established the Kalakuta republic in Agege motor road, Mushin. Kalakuta was an independent republic which housed Fela’s private residence, a free medical facility operated by his activist brother, Beko Ransome-Kuti, amongst other private buildings. Aside forming his political party – Movement of People (MOP) in the late 70s, Fela bought advertising spaces in daily newspapers in the 70s. He regularly featured his socio-political commentaries “Chief Priest Say” in the Punch and Daily Times using the title until the 80s.
Fela was jailed several times by the Military government of Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo, Gen. Mohammed Buhari and Gen. Sanni Abacha. Up until his death in 1997, Fela remained steadfast in the struggle, despite several threats, maltreatments and harassments from govt apparatus.
- Sonny Okosun
Sonny Okosun popularly referred as the Ozidi King, was one of the very few leading Nigerian musical activist and Pan-Africanist, prominent between the 1970s and 1980s. Just like Fela Kuti, Sonny is fondly remembered for his protest songs on issues affecting Nigerians and Africans alike.
Similarly, Apostle Sonny Okosun was equally known for his songs on pan-Africanism, freedom and songs against apartheid regime in South Africa. The Irrua Edo state born musician, who in the 70s teamed up with Fela Kuti’s Kola Lobitos, is known for featuring on the anti-Apartheid album ‘Sun City’ and releasing several songs to protest anti-apartheid regime in South Africa one of which included his 1977 song ‘Fire in Soweto’. He also released the album ‘Papa’s Land’ in the 70s, ‘3rd world’, ‘Which Way’ Nigeria, ‘Liberation’, and ‘Power to the People’ in the 80s. ‘Africa Now or Never’ and the popular ‘African Soldier’ in the early 90s. He took active part in the protests that greeted the annulment of June 12 Presidential elections in 1993.
- Femi Kuti
Coming from a background of social activists, Femi Kuti the son of Afro-beat creator and maestro, Fela Kuti, is a force to reckon with when it comes to musical activism in Nigeria and Africa. Femi Kuti no doubt shares the same enthusiasm for social and political activism with his late father and grandmother, Madam Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti.
Majority of Femi’s songs focused on pan Africanism, black emancipation, anti-neocolonialism, political corruption and deception, and widening poverty rate. From his albums ‘Shoki-Shoki’ to ‘Fight to Win’, ‘Day by Day’ to ‘Africa for Africa’, ‘No Place for my Dreams’ and ‘Sotan’; Femi with his positive force has been using his music as a tool for socio-political re-engineering. Femi has participated in a few protests against poor governance including the 2012 Subsidy removal protest.
- Charles Oputa
Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa aka Charly Boy can’t be left out on this list. Similar to Fela Kuti, Charly Boy is credited with using his music to criticise the military government in the 80s.
The Area Father as fondly called, is one of the controversial Nigerian entertainers best known for his androgynous and alternative ‘punk’ lifestyle. The Oguta-born song writer and TV producer is also known for his satirical media productions and political views.
Though a son of a prominent former Nigerian Supreme Court Judge, Chwukwudifu Oputa of the famous ‘Oputa Panel’, Charly Boy released his most popular album in 1990. The album which generated mixed reviews caused a national controversy that resulted in a wide refusal to play the title track by most radio stations largely due to its anti-government undertone. The album title was a direct reference to the corrupt military junta in the 90s.
Just a little like Fela Kuti, Oga Charly Boy is an advocate for the masses. During General Sanni Abacha’s regime in the 90s, Charly Boy reportedly stood in the forefront on behalf of military pensioners, by marching to the Defence Headquarters in Abuja to press for the payment of their overdue pensions. Likewise, he was involved in campaigns for Nigerian widows and was very active during the 2012 Subsidy Removal protest at which he was arrested along side other activists for civil disobedience. On several occasions Charly Boy was tortured by the Nigerian Police and the Military for criticising the government.
Still much relevant today in political activism, Oga Charly Boy has lead 3 nationwide protests and he is presently championing a new activism movement with the hashtag #OurMumuDondo.

Feeling burnt out and overwhelmed at work? Taking work leave or using your sick days might seem counterintuitive, but it’s crucial for your long-term success. When you’re constantly stressed and stretched thin, your mental and physical health suffers. Taking a break allows you to de-stress, recharge, and return to work feeling refreshed and energised.
This renewed sense of well-being translates into improved focus, creativity, and overall job satisfaction, which are all essential for professional success.
Here are several reasons why every worker should take advantage of their work leave entitlements:
1. Restoration of mental health
Imagine pushing yourself through a marathon without ever stopping to rest or refuel. That’s what happens mentally when you constantly work long hours without breaks. The pressure builds, leading to stress and burnout.
Taking time off is like hitting the pause button. It allows you to de-stress by doing things you enjoy, reducing that built-up tension. When you return to work, you’ll feel refreshed and energised, with a clearer mind ready to tackle any challenge. It’s like rebooting your brain for better performance.
2. Regaining physical health
Our bodies weren’t designed to be chained to a desk all day. Staring at a screen and hunching over a keyboard for hours on end can wreak havoc on your physical health. Your back, neck, and shoulders become strained from holding the same position, while repetitive tasks can lead to muscle fatigue and injuries.
Leave is your chance to break free from this cycle. Use your time off to get your body moving! Whether it’s hitting the gym for a workout, going for a hike in nature, or simply taking a long walk outside, any form of physical activity helps counteract the toll work takes on your body. Think of it as preventive maintenance. By giving your body a chance to rest and recuperate, you’ll not only feel better physically now, but you’ll also be preventing future aches, pains, and even more serious health problems down the road. Taking leave isn’t just about feeling good today; it’s an investment in your long-term physical well-being.
3. Increased productivity
Forget the myth that working longer hours automatically means getting more done. In fact, the opposite can be true. Taking regular breaks, like vacations and other types of leave, can actually boost your productivity when you’re back at work. Here’s why:
- Recharged focus and energy: Imagine staring at a computer screen all day, every day. It’s draining! Taking time off lets you recharge your mental batteries. When you return, you’ll have a sharper focus and more energy, allowing you to tackle tasks more efficiently.
- Less stress, better decisions: Feeling constantly stressed and overwhelmed can cloud your judgement. Taking a break helps you de-stress, which leads to clearer thinking and better decision-making. You’ll be able to approach problems with a fresh perspective and come up with creative solutions.
- Increased motivation and morale: Feeling burned out can make even the simplest tasks feel like a chore. Taking leave allows you to disconnect from work and come back feeling refreshed and motivated. This renewed enthusiasm translates into a more positive attitude and a willingness to go the extra mile.
So, taking breaks isn’t a sign of laziness; it’s a smart strategy for boosting your productivity in the long run.
4. Enhanced creativity
Stepping away from the daily grind can actually spark your creativity! Here’s how:
- New experiences, fresh ideas: Imagine yourself stuck in the same room all day. Not exactly inspiring, right? Taking time off exposes you to new things, whether it’s visiting a museum, trying a new hobby, or simply exploring a different part of town. These new experiences can spark fresh ideas and different perspectives that you can bring back to your job.
- Break free from routine and solve problems creatively: Sometimes, being stuck in the same routine can make it hard to see things from a new angle. A break from work allows you to come back with a clear head and a fresh approach to problems. The innovative solutions you come up with when you’re not bogged down by the daily grind might surprise you.
- Boost your imagination and fuel innovation: Feeling burned out can stifle your creativity. Taking leave gives your mind a chance to relax and recharge. This can lead to a boost in your imagination, making it easier to come up with creative solutions and innovative ideas that can benefit your work.
5. Improved job satisfaction
Happier employees mean a better work environment. People who take vacations and other forms of leave tend to be more satisfied with their jobs overall. Why?
Knowing your employer encourages you to take time off shows they care about your well-being. This can make you feel valued as an employee, which boosts morale.
Taking breaks helps you de-stress and recharge. When you come back to work feeling refreshed and happy, it creates a more positive work environment for everyone.
Feeling constantly burned out can make you want to leave your job. Taking leave helps prevent burnout, which can lead to lower employee turnover and a more stable team.
In short, encouraging employees to take leave creates a happier, healthier, and more productive work environment for everyone involved. It’s a win-win situation.
6. Quality time with loved ones
Feeling constantly pulled between work and personal life? Time off work is your secret weapon. The daily demands of a job can leave you feeling drained and stretched thin. This often translates into neglecting the important relationships in your life, which can take a toll on your overall well-being.
Taking time off, whether it’s a vacation, sick day, or personal day, allows you to hit the pause button on work and reconnect with the people who matter most. Imagine spending quality time with family and friends, free from the stress of work deadlines and overflowing inboxes.
These moments of connection help strengthen your personal bonds, creating a strong support system that can boost your happiness and resilience in all areas of life. After all, a fulfilling personal life isn’t just a perk; it’s a key ingredient for success and overall satisfaction.
So, don’t feel guilty about taking leave! Embrace it as an opportunity to recharge, reconnect, and remind yourself of what truly matters.
7. Personal development
Level up your life, not just your work! Taking time off work isn’t just about relaxation; it’s a chance to invest in yourself. You can use your leave to explore personal growth activities like:
- Learning a new skill: Always wanted to master photography or brush up on a foreign language? Leave gives you the dedicated time to finally take that online course or enrol in a local workshop.
- Pursuing a hobby: Do you have a passion project you’ve been neglecting? Time off allows you to delve deeper into your hobbies, whether it’s writing, painting, playing music, or anything that brings you joy.
- Travelling and exploring: Sometimes a change of scenery is all you need to spark new ideas and gain a fresh perspective. Travelling exposes you to different cultures, broadens your horizons, and can even inspire creative solutions for work-related problems.
These activities not only contribute to your personal fulfilment and overall happiness, but they can also surprisingly benefit your professional life. The new skills you learn, the knowledge you gain, and the creative spark you ignite can all translate into valuable assets that can enhance your work performance.
When companies understand that taking time off is important and encourage their employees to use their vacation days, it creates a better work environment for everyone.
Employees who are well-rested and have time for personal matters are healthier, happier, and more productive. This means the company benefits too, because they have a stronger and more satisfied workforce.

Is Your Partner Getting Close To Their Ex? Here’s What To Do
Published
3 days agoon
May 12, 2024It can be a real gut punch to see your partner getting close to their ex. A whirlwind of emotions—insecurity, jealousy, and confusion—can leave you feeling lost. Before you spiral, take a deep breath and consider the situation.
Here are 7 steps you can take when your partner is getting close to their ex:
1. Decode your feelings
Start with some self-reflection. What exactly is bugging you? Are you feeling insecure about your place in the relationship? Does the renewed contact with the ex trigger past experiences of betrayal? Identifying the root of your discomfort is crucial for effective communication.
2. Communicate your feelings openly and honestly
Once you’ve untangled your emotions, it’s time for a heart-to-heart with your partner. Choose a calm, private moment and express your concerns. Here’s the key: use “I” statements.
Instead of accusatory phrases like “You’re always talking to your ex,” try “I feel insecure when you spend a lot of time with them.” This approach focuses on your feelings and opens the door for a productive conversation.
Listen attentively to your partner’s perspective too. Try to understand why they feel the need for this reconnection. Is it unresolved issues, shared childcare responsibilities, or a genuine desire to maintain a civil friendship?
3. Take a relationship inventory
Sometimes, increased contact with an ex can be a symptom of a deeper issue in your current relationship. Use this as an opportunity to reflect on your dynamics.
Are your needs being met? Is there a sense of disconnect that might be pushing your partner towards their ex for emotional fulfilment? Talk openly and honestly about these issues and explore ways to strengthen your bond.
4. Respect boundaries, but set your own
If your partner has a child with their ex, regular contact is likely unavoidable. That’s okay! Respect these boundaries and discuss how you’d like to be involved, especially if it impacts your family dynamic.
For instance, if your partner has weekend visits with their ex and child, is there a way you can participate in some of those activities to create a sense of togetherness?
It’s also perfectly reasonable to feel uncomfortable if the level of contact with the ex seems excessive or emotionally charged. Communicate these boundaries clearly and respectfully to your partner.
5. Focus on trust and transparency
Open communication and trust are the bedrock of any strong relationship. If your partner is open and honest about their interactions with their ex, it can significantly ease your anxieties.
They should be willing to share details about the nature of their communication and assure you that there’s nothing to hide. However, if you discover a pattern of secrecy or dishonesty, it’s a major red flag that needs to be addressed directly.
6. Don’t let the ex steal your spotlight
It’s easy to get caught up in the drama of your partner’s past relationship. But don’t let the ex become the centre of your attention. Focus on strengthening the bond you share with your partner.
Plan exciting date nights, engage in shared activities you both enjoy, and maintain open communication. Invest in making your own relationship a priority.
7. Seek professional help when needed
If communication seems like an insurmountable hurdle or insecurities are overwhelming, consider seeking professional help from a couples therapist. A therapist can provide a safe space for open communication and guide you both towards healthy relationship dynamics.
They can also help you identify underlying issues that might be contributing to the situation and develop strategies to address them.
Bonus tips:
- Don’t be possessive: While it’s natural to want to feel secure in your relationship, avoid controlling your partner’s interactions. Encourage healthy boundaries with their ex, but don’t try to isolate them. Trust is a two-way street, and fostering a sense of independence will ultimately strengthen your bond.
- Maintain your self-confidence: Don’t let the presence of an ex chip away at your self-worth. Remind yourself of what makes you an amazing partner and the unique qualities you bring to the relationship.
- Don’t snoop: The urge to check your partner’s phone or social media for reassurance might be strong, but resist it! This behaviour can damage trust and create unnecessary tension.
Remember, open communication and trust are key. By addressing your concerns honestly and working together towards healthy boundaries, you can navigate this situation and emerge with a stronger, more secure relationship.

Have you ever gotten butterflies in your stomach before a big interview? That’s anxiety! It’s normal to feel some anxiety in situations like that. Our bodies are actually trying to help us by getting us alert and focused. This is called “good anxiety.” It helps us stay sharp and prepared.
However, anxiety can become a problem when it’s too strong or doesn’t go away. This is called an anxiety disorder. People with anxiety disorders experience uncontrollable worry that can interfere with their daily lives.
The good news is that there are ways to manage anxiety! There are natural methods for reducing anxiety attacks, and you can also learn more about anxiety from reliable sources like Fab.ng.
Here are some signs of anxiety:
- Panic attacks: These sudden surges of intense fear can be very frightening.

- Intrusive thoughts: Anxiety can lead to paranoia or obsessive worries.
When anxiety gets out of control, it can feel paralysing and hold you back from living your life to the fullest. However, there’s hope. The more you manage your anxiety, the better equipped you’ll be to take charge of your emotional, social, and physical well-being.
Now that we know what anxiety is, let’s explore some simple and natural strategies to help you reduce anxiety attacks. Keep reading to learn more.
9 Ways To Reduce Anxiety Naturally
Telling someone with anxiety to “calm down” simply doesn’t work. The good news is that there are effective ways to manage anxiety, and many of them focus on healthy lifestyle changes. Let’s explore some recommended strategies to help you reduce anxiety attacks naturally:
1. First up, exercise
Getting your body moving is a fantastic natural way to reduce anxiety. You don’t need to jump straight into intense workouts. Start small and find activities you enjoy.
Walking is a great option; it’s a low-impact way to clear your head and get some fresh air. Plus, it’s something most people can easily fit into their routine.
Maybe you prefer hiking, cycling, jogging, or even dancing! These activities all have a common benefit: they release endorphins. Often called “happy hormones,” endorphins improve your mood and leave you feeling good.
Exercise also helps boost your concentration and motivation, which can be especially helpful if you struggle with certain anxiety disorders. So lace up your shoes, put on your favourite music, and get moving! It’s a simple step towards feeling better and managing your anxiety.
2. Next up, sleep
Experts say getting enough quality sleep is crucial for both your physical and emotional well-being. When you don’t sleep well, it can actually worsen feelings of anxiety and stress. Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night to help keep your anxiety in check.
Here are some tips to develop good sleep habits and improve your sleep quality:
- Power down before bed: Turn off all electronics, especially phones and TVs, at least an hour before bedtime. The blue light emitted from these devices can interfere with your sleep cycle.
- Create a calming sleep environment: Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool. This will help your body relax and prepare for sleep.
- Develop a sleep routine: Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle.
3. Eat a balanced diet
The old saying “you are what you eat” holds for anxiety too. Eating a healthy, balanced diet can be a great natural way to manage anxiety symptoms.
-
Focus on magnesium: Magnesium is a mineral that plays a role in enzyme function and nerve health. Upping your magnesium intake can be a natural remedy for anxiety. Load up on foods like almonds, whole-wheat grains, quinoa, spinach, cashews, black beans, and even dark chocolate, all of which are rich in magnesium.
-
Choose whole foods: Instead of processed foods that are loaded with artificial colours, flavours, and preservatives, opt for natural whole foods that come in a variety of colours. Aim to include plenty of protein, fruits, complex carbohydrates, and vegetables in your diet. These wholesome foods are naturally packed with antioxidants, which can be beneficial for your overall well-being.
-
Hydration is key: Don’t forget to stay hydrated! Water and natural homemade juices are essential for your health.
-
Pay attention to your body: Notice how your body reacts to certain foods. If you find that specific foods trigger your anxiety, try to limit them or avoid them altogether. This can be a simple but effective way to manage your anxiety naturally.
4. Eliminate caffeine
Look, we all love that morning cup of coffee, but if you struggle with anxiety, it might be time to re-think your caffeine habits. While a moderate amount of coffee probably won’t cause problems for most people, caffeine can worsen anxiety symptoms, especially for those with chronic anxiety disorders.
Here’s why: Caffeine blocks adenosine, a chemical that makes you feel tired. Instead, it triggers the release of adrenaline, which keeps you alert. This surge of adrenaline can lead to jitters and increased nervousness, which can exacerbate anxiety.
We know that breaking up with your morning coffee can be tough. To avoid caffeine withdrawal headaches, try slowly cutting back on the amount you consume each day. Gradually reduce your intake until you reach a point where you can eliminate it altogether. This can be a significant step towards managing your anxiety naturally.
5. Say no to smoking and alcohol
Smoking and alcohol might seem to offer temporary relief from anxiety, but they actually make things worse in the long run. Smoking can worsen anxiety symptoms and irritate the lungs. Alcohol can also trigger anxiety and lead to dependence, which can create a whole new set of problems.
Research shows that both smoking and alcohol can worsen chronic stress and anxiety, especially for those with underlying mental health conditions.
Quitting smoking and alcohol is a smart decision for your overall health and can be a significant step towards managing your anxiety naturally.
6. Chamomile tea for relaxation
Since you’re cutting back on caffeine and alcohol, you might be looking for healthy alternatives to help you relax. Here’s a great option: chamomile tea!
This tea contains a compound called Matricaria recutita, which has natural calming properties. Chamomile tea can help reduce anxiety and even improve your sleep quality.
7. Breathe or rest to reduce anxiety
Anxiety attacks can be really frightening. Your heart races, and it feels like you can’t catch your breath. Here’s a simple trick to calm yourself down: deep breathing exercises.
When you take slow, deep breaths, you signal your body to relax. It’s hard to feel anxious and relaxed at the same time. There are many breathing exercises out there, but here’s a basic one to try:
- Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four.
- Hold your breath for a count of four.
- Exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of four. Repeat this process as many times as you need to feel yourself calming down.
8. Meditation for inner peace
Meditation is an age-old practice that’s been shown to be very effective in reducing chronic stress and anxiety. There are many meditation apps available that can guide you through exercises to help lower your stress levels and regulate your breathing during an anxiety attack.
Meditation helps you gain control over your body and mind, giving you the tools you need to manage your anxiety naturally.
9. Aromatherapy to reduce anxiety
Aromatherapy is another great approach to managing anxiety naturally. It’s an ancient practice that uses essential oils and plant extracts to promote overall well-being. Anxiety attacks can strike at any time, including at night, making it difficult to sleep.
Certain essential oils can help you relax, improve your mood, and get a better night’s rest. Lavender, bergamot, ylang-ylang, clary sage, and grapefruit are all known for their calming properties.
When anxiety disrupts your sleep, try diffusing these oils, adding a few drops to your bath, or inhaling them directly. You might be surprised at how effective they can be.
Bonus Tip: Laughter is the best medicine
They say laughter is the best medicine, and that holds true for anxiety too. When you laugh, it takes your mind off worries and anxieties and boosts your mood. Spending time with loved ones and sharing some laughs is a great way to de-stress and feel better.
Remember, you’re not alone
Anxiety attacks can be tough, but they are manageable. Find what works best for you to reduce your anxiety naturally. There are many resources available to help you learn more about anxiety and effective coping mechanisms.
