Popular Nigerian singer Seun Kuti has taken to his social media page to tell Nigerians to stop attaching toxic masculinity to the African culture.

Seun Kuti who took to his twitter page to make this call corrected the popular notion that linked toxic masculinity with the African Culture.

According to Seun Kuti, toxic masculinity has European heritage.

Taking to his social media page to tell people to stop linking toxic Masculinity to Africans, Seun Kuti wrote:

A woman’s place is in the kitchen? Which kitchen? Whose kitchen? Not our ancestors kitchen! This proverb is European without any equivalent in any African language. So before you start attaching your toxic masculinity to African culture ask yourself this, do I know African culture? As an African what culture practices of African heritage do I engage in? Religion education liberation? If the answer is none, how come u want to suddenly become African to subjugate and oppress your woman? Ain’t no such thing as half way crooks. You are either African or u aren’t , there is no picking and choosing especially when you want to dump ur toxic self on our women. REAL AFRICANS ELEVATE THE FEMININE FORM #getthesax
