Nigerian rapper and activist Eedris Abdulkareem has announced the suspension of his Facebook and Instagram accounts, which he says occurred shortly after he released his new song, “Open Letter to Donald Trump.”
Abdulkareem on Sunday said that he has been blocked from accessing both accounts since the release of the song.
“Facebook just suspended my Facebook and Instagram account because of my new song, Open Letter to Donald Trump I can’t access it.” he wrote.
However, a quick check on his accounts showed that both accounts were no longer accessible.
The rapper, known for his politically charged music and long-standing criticism of government policies, did not provide further details regarding the duration of the suspension by Meta, Facebook’s parent company.
Abdulkareem’s ‘Open Letter to Donald Trump’ is a protest song that criticises corruption, insecurity, and misgovernance in Nigeria, while appealing to global attention on the plight of ordinary Nigerians.
Released in November 2025 under Lakreem Entertainment, Abdulkareem’s label, it is framed as a direct “letter” to U.S. President Donald Trump, but the real target is Nigeria’s political class.
In the song, Abdulkareem accuses Nigerian leaders of enriching themselves while ordinary citizens suffer. He portrays them as “criminals of all shades and hues” who dominate society.
The song references the worsening insecurity, including kidnappings, killings, and terrorism, that leave citizens vulnerable and fearful.
By addressing Trump, Abdulkareem symbolically seeks international recognition of Nigeria’s crisis, using the U.S. president as a rhetorical device to amplify his message.
The track continues Abdulkareem’s tradition of politically charged music, similar to his earlier hit “Jaga Jaga”, which criticized Nigeria’s leadership.
It reflects the frustration of many Nigerians with governance failures and the desire for accountability.
