Lokachi Yayi, meaning “The Time Has Come”, is a powerful and thought-provoking song by Sir Important Jos that boldly addresses the harsh realities of insecurity and self-defense. With deep lyrics and urgent delivery, the song carries a strong message: the era of silence is over — it’s time to wake up and protect ourselves.
Through the metaphor “sayar da bargo mu sayi makami” (sell our blanket to buy weapons), the artist paints a vivid picture of a community that has endured enough suffering and now realizes that comfort must give way to survival. It’s not a call to violence — but a poetic cry for preparedness, vigilance, and the right to safety in the face of growing threats.
Blending traditional Hausa musical styles with modern production, Lokachi Yayi serves as a wake-up call to communities, leaders, and individuals alike. Sir Important Jos uses music as a voice for the voiceless, urging people not to wait for rescue but to take wise steps to defend themselves and their loved ones.
This song is more than art — it’s advocacy. A stirring anthem for justice, survival, and the dignity of the oppressed.
