Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Okey Sokay and Nolly's "AKA (Remix)" talks about embracing your identity and uniqueness as a person. "AKA" is an acronym for "Also Known As" which is a term used to list all the names or identities a person has. The song encourages the listener to be proud of who they are, even if they are different from others. The repetitive chorus of "Everybody tuwara aka, Chai, aka, Oye nemenma kuwara aka now" means that everyone has an "Also Known As" and to embrace it, even if it may not be understood by others. The song lyrics also encourage individuals to be true to themselves and not conform to societal norms or expectations.

The line "Aka maramna... Aka maranma kan ga ku" is in Igbo language and translates to "My name will not disappear... My name will be heard all over". This serves as a statement of personal conviction and a confident assertion of identity.
