Veteran lawyer, Femi Falana, has expressed support for his musician son, Falz, and his (Falana’s) daughter, Folake, for being at the forefront of the EndSARS and EndSWAT protests.
He feels fulfilled and proud that the children have inherited the struggle for emancipation from him.
Folake, an entertainment lawyer, made this known in a series of tweets, saying:
“My Dad said he is so proud of everything all of us are doing and that he is especially proud of his rebellious son @falzthebahdguy. He told us that he has been protesting for 40+years and this is unprecedented. I pray I can tell my children that we changed things. #EndSWAT.
“My dad just sent me a bunch of pictures. As if to say, ‘when you people finish with #SARS people, please tackle these other areas’ lol. I know he is super proud of young Nigerians right now.”
Falz has, over the years, demonstrated social consciousness in his music, with some songs and videos attacking bad governance in Nigeria.
