Zaaki Azzay seeks a presidential candidate willing to sacrifice for Nigeria's progress

In an interview with Saturday Beats, Azzay expressed that he has not yet seen any politician who truly stands out. He believes that the current president, Tinubu, should be allowed to complete his eight years, as he sees no significant difference in other emerging politicians, describing it as "recycling the same set of people." Azzay emphasized that an ideal leader must be selfless and youth-inclined, ready to sacrifice for Nigeria, to initiate a fresh cycle rather than repeating past patterns.

He noted that many Nigerians, especially young people, have lost faith due to repeated disappointments from leaders. Azzay also discussed the decline of socially conscious music, attributing it to public discouragement and a lack of government support. He mentioned that while some artists still create patriotic music, government events often prioritize popular club-hit artists over those promoting peace and unity.

He clarified that his song "Change Is Possible" was a message about peace and unity, often misunderstood as a political campaign slogan.
