Rebel Salute 2025: Queen Ifrica tackles abuse, urges victims to speak

bess100fm

Queen Ifrica, renowned for her passionate advocacy for women’s rights, used her performance at Rebel Salute 2025, held at Plantation Cove in St Ann over the weekend, to amplify her calls for greater support for victims of sexual abuse and societal reform.


She interspersed her 40-minute set with jabs at molesters and urged Jamaicans to stand for “positive’ values to improve the mores and cultural fabric of the country.


While encouraging women to “strengthen di man dem,” a colloquialism for moral support, she urged women to continue to support the family structure with their resourcefulness and innovative spirit.



Ifrica didn’t let women off the hook either, calling for them to “stop giving man jacket,” even as she preached self-love. “If you don’t love yourself, yuh deh pon yuh own because nobody nah go love you, like how you can love you,” she told the audience.


She also took several jabs at politicians in the audience during her set for what she described failing to do enough to create platforms to support victims of abuse.
