Controversal bongo fleva artist, Ney wa Mitego has always dwindled around trouble with the authority through his explicit music. This time he may have taken it too far.
Morogoro police have arrested Ney wa Mitego in the region just after his show last night and he is being held at Mvomero Police Station, Morogoro Regional Police Commander, Ulrich Matei confirmed.
BASATA's Secretary General, Godfrey Mngereza said, "It is not the first time Ney Wa Mitego has done ridiculous stuff and the hand of the law reaches everywhere."
BASATA has not yet issued any official statement concerning the artist but they have listened to the song and they are discussing legal measures to take.
Speculations link his arrest to his recent song by the title 'Wapo' that leaked a few days ago on the internet.
"It is true I am under arrest. Right now I am being taken to the police station," the artist wrote on his Instagram account, according to news agency AFP.
Elibariki is known for his political lyrics. The latest song, Wapo, which has not been broadcast on the radio yet, appears to be critical of the government for its alleged crackdown on freedom of speech.
"Is there still freedom of expression in the country?" the song, largely shared on social media at the weekend, says.
"Who are you now? Don't you want to listen to advice? Don't you want criticism?" continue the lyrics, in Swahili.
The song speaks of a person who "lances boils" but cannot tolerate criticism. Some believe it is a reference to President John Magufuli, who has often spoken of "lancing boils" in his governance.
Earlier this month, Magufuli fired information minister Nape Nnaye after the latter criticised Dar es Salaam's regional commissioner, Paul Makonda. Along with six armed policemen, Makonda stormed the offices of a local broadcaster, demanding the airing of a video that portrayed a local cleric in a bad light.
Makonda and the cleric had been in disagreement over an alleged drug scandal, local media reported.
The sacking came one day after a commission set up by Nnaye that recommended the government to take measures against Makonda, something the leadership refused to do.
Magufuli also warned local media to be careful on how they use press freedom. The leader made the remarks after accusing media owners of exaggerating an incident in which a plain clothes security officer pointed a gun at Nnaye to stop him from addressing the media.
