The atmosphere in the lounge was electric, with patrons passionately joining in the chorus, showcasing a growing sentiment among a section of the populace.
The song, originally a gospel tune adapted for political purposes, has evolved into a rallying cry for critics of the government. The scene at Quiver Lounge reflects the increasing public frustration over various issues such as the high cost of living, unemployment, and alleged government corruption.
