Seun Kuti claims that anybody who has access to Tinubu will love him [Video]
According to well-known Afrobeats singer Seun Kuti, most people who criticize President Bola Tinubu would end up loving him if they had access to him.
The controversial performer said this on an edition of The Honest Podcast, explaining that if they got close to the president, the criticism would stop.
Seun Kuti claimed that as a child, he was unable to freely enter his girlfriend’s home due to the way that his late father, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, the founder of afrobeat, was “hated” by the public.
The instrumentalist claims that most people who criticize politicians frequently change their minds after praising the offspring of politicians due to financial incentives.
Seun said; “Being Fela’s son, growing up in Nigeria, I no even fit enter my girlfriend papa’s house. I go dey wonder say, ‘Wettin my papa sef dey do like dis wey nobody like am?’
“But I know my father; he’s a cool guy. So, what’s it about this guy that nobody likes? If I go anywhere, people would be like, ‘Oh! He’s Fela’s son…’ I know that pain. But I looked at all politicians’ children; the same people who criticise Tinubu today will praise his children tomorrow because of money.
“So, I understand that if you had access to Tinubu, you would love him. Your only hatred of him is your lack of access.”
