Yemi Alade Is Feeding On The Suffering Of Others – Farida Nabourema

Yemi Alade has dragged Togolese activist, Farida Nabourema for her alleged role in starting the political oppression of the people of Togo.

Farida Nabourema recently talked about how African celebrities unlike their counterparts from another part of the world, use their position to endorse political oppression from dictators.

This statement was made due to the recent events in the West Africa country. Togo has been in distress for the last few months because its people are protesting against its president, Faure Gnassingbe, who has been in power since 2005, after the death of his father, Gnassingbe Eyadema, who ruled for 38 years.

Nabourema went on to say she loved Yemi Alade in the past until she listened to her singing in support of “one of the most brutal dictators in Togo because they paid her a couple of hundreds of thousands of dollars,” she said.

She said she was so angry and mad at the Nigerian singer and would curse her if she ever gets to meet her. She described the singer as someone who is “feeding on the suffering of others.”

“They are embellishing the image of a brutal dictator just for a couple of thousands of dollars,” she continued.

Taiye Aliyu who is the manager to Yemi Alade confirmed what really happened, he said “It was like a normal show you go for in the country. It was a festival they normally do. It wasn’t a political thing at all. Yemi Alade just went there to perform.”

Presently, Yemi is a judge on the music talent show “The Voice Nigeria 2”.
