Music producer, Don Jazzy and singer Tiwa Savage who have been cautioned against making social media comments against the regime of the President Muhammadu Buhari after an invitation by the Department of State Security, DSS.
AMILOADED gathered that Tiwa Savage earned the invitation after she ran a campaign, ‘WeAreTired’, in reaction to a rise in cases of rape in the country.
She also made social media posts to draw the attention of the Buhari regime to the issue.
The singer and Don Jazzy were invited to the Lagos office of the DSS where they were warned to be mindful of the kind of posts they make on social media.
Since the meeting with the DSS at their Shangisha office two weeks ago, Tiwa Savage has not continued with the campaign against rape, while Don Jazzy has toned down his activities on Twitter.
Shortly after, singers Yemi Alade and Waje were invited by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Zubairu Muazu who warned them to avoid making political comments that could anger the Buhari regime.
Muazu gave the warning during a brief on the measures put in place to stem the tide of rape in the country.

Is this what these people now have time for? There are so many bandits, criminals and terrorists ravaging our landscape, meant to be arrested and prosecuted but all we read are innocent and harmless people expressing their displeasure, being hounded. Is this really a democracy?

The national intelligence agency of Israel, Mossad told the Chadian army Boko Haram hideouts.
Our own “SHITHOLE” DSS can’t even find out Boko Haram hideouts but it’s to tell us Sowore is a threat to Nigeria.
Tiwa & Don Jazzy have the right to express themselves.
