There has been a lot of anticipation, with regards to the nationwide protest that is set to be held in a few days time, and a lot of people have given hot takes about it, including Seun Kuti. In support of the upcoming protest, Seun Kuti wrote;.....Read The Full Article>>.....Read The Full Article>>
”The people of Nigeria are patient! The sad
truth is that you can’t protest your way out of organised abandonment you can only
ORGANISE and most importantly we can’t be afraid to be the leaders of our organizations.
Only the disorganized are leaderless. It’s time for us to claim our true destiny and purpose.
Protest but we must ORGANIZE. ITS NOT ENOUGH TO BRING THE SYSTEM DOWN WE MUST BE READY WITH ITS REPLACEMENT.”
Going forward, Seun Kuti also added;
”The protest is a clear case of cause and effect. The government, to balance its
finances, have asked only the p**r and working people to foot the bil!! If this government had instead increased the tax on the richest Nigerians by 70 percent and called Amcon debts the rich will start a civil war”
Seun Kuti has always been into social activism, and for a long time now, he has proven himself to be tough skinned.
The talented singer/instrumentalist has been to jail a few times, and he has often stated that he isn’t scared of getting locked up.
Seun Kuti has also associated himself with the likes of Very Dark Man, who shares similar views with him on societal issues.
Both of them have become thick as thieves, with Very Dark Man often applauding Seun Kuti for being a force of his own, and standing his ground.
When Very Dark Man had issues with Paulo, Seun Kuti stood by him, even when he was asked to choose between the two feuding parties publicly.
