President Bola Tinubu and First Lady Oluremi Tinubu were treated to a memorable dinner hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, during Tinubu’s official visit to France.
The event took an unexpected twist when a group of French musicians wowed the audience by performing P-Square’s classic hit, Testimony.
The performance, shared online by journalist Tolu Ogunlesi, showed the Oyinbo singers enthusiastically belting out the Nigerian anthem.
Tinubu and his wife watched on, clearly enjoying the lively act, while the guests vibed along. The energetic rendition sparked massive reactions across social media.
The dinner, a key part of Tinubu’s three-day visit, aimed to strengthen Nigeria-France relations and attract foreign investments.
However, the spotlight shifted to the music. Many Nigerians on social media celebrated the global influence of P-Square’s work, but some playfully demanded royalties for the iconic duo.
One user, @EasYQuality, joked, “P-Square go collect royalty ohh, I can’t even say if them go like this matter.” Another, @Updateboyx, added, “Make dem sha pay P-Square their royalty or else.” Amidst the humor, others expressed mixed feelings about the event.
While some applauded the cultural connection, others took a more skeptical stance. @Am_Issa_ commented, “This is beautiful, though I’m worried about what this man will be signing after all these shows.”
Another, @SeunAyo_, humorously observed, “Lol, they are performing P-Square for BAT. In summary, Obidient performing for ‘not my president.’”
Tinubu’s visit comes at a crucial time, with hopes of building stronger ties between the two nations. Beyond the politics and business, the performance underscored the universal appeal of Nigerian music.
It reminded everyone of the power of cultural diplomacy, proving that music knows no borders.
Whether it was a strategic move or a heartfelt tribute, one thing is clear: P-Square’s Testimony stole the show and gave the state dinner a uniquely Nigerian vibe.
Fans are now playfully urging the government to “settle” P-Square for making the night unforgettable!
