It is not about giving rice – Rema tells Nigerian leaders how to tackle hardship

Afrobeat star Divine Ikubor, known popularly as Rema has taken to social media to Nigerian leaders to  implement effective measures to address the hardship in the country.

According to the 23-year-old singer, providing a temporary relief will not assuage the suffering of the people.

Sharing his thoughts during an appearance on The Breakfast Club, the singer said it is important that  Nigerian leaders establish sustainable platforms to consistently provide for the masses.

Rema also stated that he has been advising Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, on some of his policies whenever they meet.

He said, “It’s not about giving rice. Do you know if some kids have an allergy to rice? What about tomorrow? What are they going to eat tomorrow?

“It’s better to create a platform that would consistently provide. Create a platform that would consistently educate. Create a platform that would consistently clothe. Create a platform that would consistently shelter the hungry people.”
