Miracle Day’s CEO, Uzoma Day Omenka simply known as Uzo, has dropped a new single titled, Freedom.
According to the former manager of the late reggae musician, Majek Fashek, his latest song, which he performed at the Black History event and Independence Day in London recently, was borne out of the need for mankind to embrace peace.
He said: “I don’t just sing for singing sake. I pass messages in all of my songs. This is no exception. Freedom starts from home. Let me start from our local background. You are somebody’s father and your daughter brings home a man who wants to marry her. You begin to discriminate, saying he doesn’t have anything. Take a look at the security guards guiding prisoners.
They are not free, the prisoners are not free because the security personnel would be constantly watching.”
The song’s lyrics touch on the difficulties faced in Nigeria, most especially, high cost of living, leading some women to resort to prostitution.
“See Nigeria, nothing is happening. No food. Things are expensive and you expect a hungry man to behave normal? Most of our ladies have resorted to prostitution. You would hardly find a right thinking lady nowadays,” he posited.
