Seun Kuti
AFROBEAT singer Seun Kuti has said he wants the death of ‘African traitors’ as gift for his 34th birthday on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, the eve of his birthday, Seun had gone on his Facebook to declare his birthday wish.
‘I noticed how no ones new year resolution was to fight for a better
Africa, a free Africa,’ he wrote.
‘Everybody wants money money money. My birthday is tomorrow and all I want is destruction to the system of global white domination, all I want is death to all African traitors and race traitors , all I want is the strength to fight harder for my people.’
Seun is the son of the late controversial founder of Afrobeats Fela Kuti and singer Fehintola, one of Fela’s 27 dancers whom he later married.
Since going into music and heading his father’s band, Egypt 80, Seun has toed the political activism path of his father. Not one to shy from contributing to political discourse, Seun through his music and public discourse, especially on his social media handles has continued to make his opinions heard.
Only on Monday, he had thrown a jibe at recently sworn-in Ghana president, Nana Akufo-Addo, whose speech was fraught with plagiarism from speeches from former US presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.
“You wear African attire but speak American words,” Seun had lampooned the Ghanaian president.
