Boy Spyce - Folake Download



Mavin Records release a brand new song by Boy Spyce title “Folake“. This record serves as Boy Spyce’s first official single for the year 2023 and since his self titled debut EP. FOLAKE produced by Sparrq is an Afropop track that talks about Love and Betrayal.

Boy Spyce was born Ugbekile David Osameke in Lagos Nigeria, an indigene of the historically rich Benin city in Edo state. Boy Spyce is a mix of a wise old spirit in the body of a 20 year old and an unapologetic self-aware young lad. He became an internet sensation through song covers using his unmistakably unique voice and reflective lyrics.

His introduction to music came through his older brother who was in a boyband at the time. Watching him come up with melodies, going to the studio and rehearse with his other band members was quite fascinating which made Spyce start writing songs.

Boy Spyce’s goal as an artist is to make songs for every emotion a person could possibly feel, he wants his songs to be the soothing balm at every point in time for everyone who comes across his music. Listen to his latest single title “FOLAKE”.

Quotable Lyrics

Folake don pompous
She don dey drive Brabus, so
She no dey talk to us again
She no dey come campus again...’

Enjoy!!!

      #endsars: All you need to know; Amnesty sets in


      Rights group Amnesty International has raised concern about "escalating violence" in Nigeria against the #EndSars protest movement.

      Armed thugs had attacked protesters at the headquarters of the central bank in the capital, Abuja, it said.

      For their part, police accused people "posing" as protesters of looting weapons, and torching police buildings in southern Edo state.

      Prisoners were also reported to have escaped from a jail in the state.

      The protests started about two weeks ago to demand an end to police brutality, with mainly young people using the social media hashtag #EndSars to rally people to demand the closure of the notorious Special Anti-Robbery Squad (Sars).

      The unit, formed during military rule in 1984, was accused of extortion, torture and murder.

      The protests have also been backed by global celebrities such as Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, US rapper Kanye West, footballers Mesut Ozil and Marcus Rashford as well as Nigerian superstars Davido and Wizkid.

      The government agreed to disband the unit, but protests have since snowballed into calls for wider reforms with protesters now also using the hashtags #EndBadGovernance, #BetterNigeria and #FixNigeriaNow to build support on social media.

      There was an increased military presence in Abuja on Monday - a day after Defence Minister Bashir Magashi warned protesters against "breaching national security", the BBC's Nduka Orjinmo reports from the city.

      Torture allegations

      In Lagos, the country's commercial hub, protesters blocked access to the main international airport by barricading the road.

      Amnesty said police brutality has continued, with a 17-year-old teenager, named only as Saifullah, dying in police custody in northern Kano state on Monday.

      She had allegedly been tortured to death, prompting protests in Kano's Kofar Mata area, Amnesty added.

      Police have not yet commented on the allegation.

      In other developments, Amnesty said police fired tear gas at peaceful protesters in Abuja, while armed thugs had early on Monday morning attacked activists who had been occupying the central bank's headquarters in the city.

      Dozens of protesters were severely injured, the rights group said.

      It was the latest in a series of "escalating violence and coordinated attacks" against #EndSars protesters, Amnesty added.

      The attacks have also led to casualties in recent days in the cities of Benin in the south, and Oshogbo in the middle-belt, it said.

      "We again call on law enforcement agencies to investigate these incidents and protect the protesters from further attack by hoodlums," Amnesty added,

      Meanwhile, the Edo state government has declared an indefinite curfew because of "incidents of vandalism and attacks carried out by hoodlums in the guise of #EndSars protesters".

      Earlier on Monday, prisoners broke out of a jail in the state.

      Local media reported that more than 200 prisoners had escaped, but there has been no independent confirmation of this.

      In videos posted on social media, some men could be seen scaling a high barbed-wire fence said to be the prison walls.

      Police said two police stations and a police post were attacked in the state by "persons posing as #EndSars protesters".

      "The extent of damage cannot be ascertained at the moment but report indicates that the protesters carted away arms and ammunition from the armoury and freed the suspects in custody before setting some of the facilities ablaze," it said.

      Some Twitter users responded to the claim with scepticism.

      "Nigerian police that are happy to shoot at peaceful protesters suddenly froze when prisoners are escaping??" one tweeter commented.

      An unprecedented challenge to Nigeria's leaders

      By Ishaq Khalid, BBC News, Abuja

      The ongoing protests are clearly a strong message not only to the current government but to the entire political class in Nigeria.

      The relentlessness of the young people is uncommon. Demonstrations like these rarely last for more than three days but these ones appear to be gathering momentum.

      As well as calling for an end to bad governance and poor economic conditions, some protesters are also beginning to demand more action from the government to tackle widespread insecurity in the north of the country, where armed criminal gangs carry out deadly attacks and kidnap people for ransom.

      The government's response to some of the demands of the protesters has been unprecedented too.

      It has pledged to disband Sars, set up of panels to investigate and prosecute erring police officers and promised wider police reforms.

      Another rare gesture is the public apology by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, who admitted that the government had not acted fast enough to address young people's concerns.

      But the protesters remain unsatisfied, saying they need more action.

      It is obvious that Nigerian officials are nervous about the ongoing protests and are deliberating how to handle them before they get out of hand.
