Governor el_rufai son mocks musician Falz for undergoing surgery in UK
Bashir el_Rufai, the son of Kaduna State Governor Nasir el_Rufai, has mocked Nigerian rapper, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, for undergoing surgery in the UK.
Newsflash Nigeria reports that the Nigerian rapper made this known in a video shared on his Instagram page on Wednesday evening, May 10, 2023.
According to Falz, he sustained a knee injury while playing football in November 2022 and was unaware it was a serious health issue.
The rapper added he was advised to undergo surgery to fix his knee.
Sharing his pre and post-surgery experience Falz wrote: “Current situation. It’s a whole journey to being 100% back. Say a prayer for me.”
Reacting to this, the son of the governor, Bashir questioned why Falz did not undergo the surgery at the Lagos State Teaching Hospital considering how he has been vocal about the country’s situation.
He wrote on Twitter, “UK? He didn’t go to LASUTH as a bonafide human rights activist? Disappointing”
Recall that Falz recently revealed why he is against the victories of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, and the Lagos state Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Falz claimed that the failure of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to adhere to the rules and regulations guiding the elections made him question the electoral process that saw Tinubu and Sanwo-Olu emerge victorious.
The rapper stated this while speaking on Arise TV’s entertainment programme titled ‘Music as a political tool’.
Falz is the son of foremost Lawyer and human rights activist, Femi Falana. Like his father Falz is also a lawyer but decided to pursue a career in the music industry.
