Nigerian rapper Oludemilade Adejo, popularly known as YCee, has ignited a storm of controversy after unleashing a blistering tirade against the ruling All Progressives Congress APC on social media.

The Jagaban crooner took to his X handle to vent his anger over the state of governance in Nigeria, directing his rage squarely at members of the APC and expressing extreme wishes for their political and personal downfall in 2027.

YCee wrote that he does not merely want the party voted out of office; he wants its key figures “publicly shamed, hung from the gallows, incarcerated and treated like the absolute cancer that they are.” In the same post, he listed a series of brutal punishments, saying he wished they would be “put down like rabid dogs, exiled from the land, firing squad, lethal injection, electric chair, wiped off the face of the earth.”

The language, laced with fury and graphic imagery, reflects a deep frustration that has been simmering among many young Nigerians who feel shortchanged by successive administrations. YCee, who has previously used his platform to comment on governance and social issues, appears to be channeling that broader discontent into a personal and unapologetically harsh denunciation of the ruling party.

His comments have sparked intense debate online. Supporters argue that his outburst mirrors the anger of citizens grappling with economic hardship, insecurity and a perceived lack of accountability among political elites. Critics, however, say his rhetoric crosses the line, accusing him of promoting hate and violence rather than constructive criticism or civic engagement.

While APC officials and prominent party loyalists are yet to issue a formal response to the post, sympathizers of the party have begun pushing back on social media, accusing the rapper of incitement and disrespect for democratic processes.

YCee’s outburst underscores the increasingly fraught relationship between Nigeria’s political class and a restless youth population that has turned to music, activism and digital platforms to voice its grievances. As the country edges toward the 2027 general elections, such incendiary interventions from influential entertainers may further shape public discourse, amplifying both anger and demands for change.
