The Nigerian sensational and international Afrobeats superstar, Rema has acknowledged his global music breakthrough and said it is time to give back to youths.
Speaking during his courtesy visit to the Governor Obaseki of Edo State, he said: “This is the time to do something for youths. I just want to do things. I have been able to make a breakthrough in the music industry. I went out there to perform on the global stage and took Benin City with me. I carried the city on my back and on my shoulders and expressed my culture in the best way I could. The government will make moves and it is also time for the youths to make moves, re-educate themselves, ready to accept new rules for the betterment of the community and for the evolution of the entertainment industry as well.”
Rema continued, “We have so much in stock for the young people of the State. I would not be here in the first place if not for the youths in Nigeria. They are the people I am part of, live for, the people I inspire, and motivate. They are the next generation.”
Governor Obaseki said, “We had an opportunity to tell him all we have done and how we are interested in supporting young people in the arts, culture, and entertainment sectors. We have commenced the conversation with him on an iconic art project for this city and this part of the country.”
The governor emphasized that his government will support the youths in their endeavor to compete globally. Rema was born and raised in Benin city, Edo State.
