Speaking during a recent Instagram livestream, Seun addressed long-standing narratives surrounding Fela’s health and relationships, pushing back against claims that the legendary musician infected his partners with HIV. Instead, he suggested a different perspective, one he described as rooted in the lifestyle his father embraced.

According to Seun, Fela’s approach to relationships—particularly within his household—was one of openness, where his wives were not restricted from seeing other partners. He argued that this decision ultimately had unintended consequences.

He said …

“Fela made many mistakes. One of the mistakes he made -one day, I saw a video of a lady online saying why are people praising Fela’s legacy despite him giving women HIV and dying of AIDS.

“I said, ‘Oh, Fela you see yourself?’ If Fela was a traditional man, he would still be alive. I will tell you something about him that you might not have known, Fela’s women all had other men.

“Fela did not keep his women to himself. He believed that as he is free to sleep with all the women, the women are also free to meet other men. His law was that they shouldn’t bring the men to his house.

“My father doesn’t leave his house to sleep with other women outside, so it was his women who brought HIV home to him. Nobody is perfect. Everybody make mistakes. But Fela is a man that is on the side of humanity.”

Seun went on to describe this as one of the late icon’s major missteps, suggesting that some of the women allegedly contracted the virus elsewhere and unknowingly passed it on to him.

His comments have since sparked mixed reactions, with many revisiting Fela’s legacy—both as a cultural revolutionary and as a man whose unconventional lifestyle continues to generate debate years after his passing.

In a video making rounds online, Seun praised the bravery and resilience of African heroes who stood against oppression and injustice.

He argued that the sacrifices made by figures like Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, and his father hold deeper meaning, as they faced death without any expectation of resurrection.

According to him, these individuals knowingly gave their lives for their people, fully aware that their deaths would be final. He contrasted this with the Christian belief surrounding Jesus, suggesting that the certainty of resurrection changes the nature of that sacrifice.

“The sacrifice of Lumumba is greater to me than the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ knew he was going to wake up after three days, but the people that died for me; Lumumba, Sankara, my father, Nkrumah, Steve Biko, these people died knowing they would never wake up, and they still died. They’ve dehumanized us for so long they believe we are all animals. We need to prove to them that we are humans. From today, no matter what they come with, stand your ground!,” he stated.

His comments have since sparked intense debate online, with many weighing in on his views about religion, history, and the legacy of African resistance figures such as Kwame Nkrumah and Steve Biko.

“The sacrifice of Lumumba is greater to me than the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ knew he was going to wake up after three days, but the people that died for me; Lumumba, Sankara, my father, Nkrumah, Steve Biko — these people d! 3d and they knew they were never going to… pic.twitter.com/sl1TZtrmfy

During a live video, Seun Kuti explained that some pastors make claims of miraculous healings that cannot be medically verified. He argued that these acts of deceit should be punishable by law, insisting that pastors caught faking miracles should face jail time.

“A law should be made to ensure that no one is allowed to perform miracles, and anyone caught claiming to perform a miracle should be sent to jail. The only exception would be if the miracle can be proven at Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH).

They should perform the miracle for ten people at LUTH. I do not want to hear about fake miracles, because your God can do all things. I am not talking about miracles that claim to heal someone who has been blind their entire life. In this case, I’m talking about someone with no eyeballs at all and if the miracle is real, the person should gain full vision.

If you cannot perform the miracle, you should be held accountable. If a person is unable to perform the miracle, they should be sentenced to fifty years in prison,” he stated.

Seun’s remarks have reignited debates around accountability in religious practices in Nigeria, with many weighing in on social media over the role of faith leaders and the need for verification of miraculous claims.

The outspoken artist made the remarks during a recent livestream, where he claimed that many Nigerians who focus on migrating abroad do so because of harsh economic realities.

According to Seun, poverty plays a major role in shaping people’s mindsets and decisions, including the belief that leaving the country is the only path to a better life.

During the session, Seun also took a swipe at Wizkid’s fan base, popularly known as FC, describing them in unflattering terms. He suggested that their thinking and ideologies are influenced by their socio-economic background, linking this directly to their support for the idea of “japa.”

In his words:

“Most of these FC are poor. They are poor children that grew up in poor homes. I cannot blame you because if you grew up in a poor home in Nigeria, there is no how your brain is fully formed. The biggest example of people who grew up in poor homes are the people that believe in Japa. If you believe in japa, it’s because you grew up in a poor home. There’s nobody who grew up in a better house who will japa. You can travel and come back.”

Seun’s comments have since sparked heated reactions online, with many Nigerians pushing back against his views, while others debate his broader argument about poverty, migration, and the realities facing young people in the country.

“Most of these FC are children that grew up in poor homes… The biggest examples of people who grew up in poor home are people wey believe in ‘japa’. Anybody wey japa grew up in a poor home.”

The tension first surfaced after Seun Kuti openly criticised Wizkid’s fanbase for what he described as disrespectful comparisons between the Ojuelegba singer and their late father, Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Seun argued that such comparisons diminished Fela’s towering legacy.

The situation quickly escalated when Wizkid fired back at Seun in a series of Instagram posts laced with insults, at one point declaring himself greater than Fela — a remark that further inflamed public opinion.

As the dispute spiralled, social media platforms became battlegrounds, with fans, commentators and music lovers sharply divided over the comments and the broader issue of comparing contemporary stars to cultural icons.

Addressing the controversy during a recent interview on Arise TV, Femi Kuti revealed that his silence throughout the drama was intentional. According to him, Fela’s name and legacy should not be dragged into public quarrels or used as reference points in personal disputes.

He stressed that Fela occupies a rare and untouchable position in Nigerian music history, adding that constant comparisons between the Afrobeat legend and today’s artistes are unnecessary and unhelpful.

Femi also made it clear that he had no intention of taking sides, explaining that he maintains close personal relationships with both Seun and Wizkid. While acknowledging the emotions surrounding the issue, he expressed hope that tensions would soon ease.

“I am sure that you have seen that I have not said anything. Fela is our father, I think more of the younger artistes respect him and I do not think that it should have been an issue brought up because he is the template of many things both musically and artistically in Nigeria,” he said.

“So Fela should just be put in a sector of his own and we should just idolize and respect him.

I do not want to go into Seun and Wizkid’s matter because Seun is my brother and Wizkid is like a son. I just wish it did not arise and hopefully everyone would calm down very soon.”

With his remarks, Femi Kuti sought to lower the temperature around the controversy, urging respect for legacy and restraint, while subtly reminding the public that some icons stand beyond comparison.

“Wizkid is like a son to me, and seun is my brother, I just wished the whole thing between them didn’t happen and I really hope everyone would calm down soon. Fela is our father and every artiste respects him”

In a video that has since circulated on social media, the self-acclaimed African Giant spoke candidly about where he believes he stands in the music hierarchy.

While paying homage to Afrobeat pioneer Fela, Burna Boy made it clear that there is only one artist he considers superior to himself.

With visible reverence, the singer described Fela as the ultimate symbol of Afrobeat, acknowledging his unmatched legacy and influence on African music and culture.

However, he did not shy away from making a bold statement about his own stature in the industry.

In his words, “Fela is the king. He is the only one greater than me.”

The brief but powerful remark has since sparked reactions online, with fans weighing in on Burna Boy’s confidence and his open respect for the Afrobeat legend whose impact continues to shape generations of artists.

Recall, speaking on a recent episode of the What I Know podcast, Sodimu broke down the distinct strengths of the Afrobeats “Big 3,” Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid, noting that while all three wield enormous influence, their impact stretches in very different directions beyond music.

According to Sodimu, Burna Boy has cemented himself as a dominant global performer, celebrated for his commanding stage presence and international appeal, while Wizkid enjoys a unique, almost cult-like loyalty from his fanbase.

Davido, however, was described as an artist whose reach transcends entertainment.

“The Big 3 are all doing music for different reasons,” Sodimu said. “Burna Boy has conquered the stage, and he is very good. Wizkid is special. But Davido surpasses music.”

Speaking during an appearance on TVC’s Your View on January 22, 2026, Yeni made it clear that her comments were not borne out of hostility toward Wizkid, whom she described as a close friend, but were prompted by the decision to drag Fela’s name into a personal dispute.

“I love Wizkid a lot, he is my paddy na. He is my small friend,” she said. “I remember when he started at the Shrine, he was a backup singer. I cannot stop liking Wizkid.”

Despite that long-standing relationship, Yeni said the tone of the feud changed once references to her late father entered the conversation.

“He did too much by insulting my father, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti,” she stated. “If you have a problem with someone, why are you now calling Fela out?”

The ongoing feud, which erupted earlier in the week, began as a heated exchange between Seun Kuti and Wizkid on social media.

What initially appeared to be a clash of opinions quickly spiralled into personal attacks, drawing in fans, critics, and cultural observers nationwide. The situation intensified after Fela’s legacy was invoked, sparking widespread backlash.

Yeni said she wished the situation had been handled differently, especially by Wizkid, whom she believes could have de-escalated the tension early.

“I wish when all these started, he had put a stop to it before it became what it is now,” she said.

She also lamented the timing of the controversy, noting that it coincides with global recognition of Fela’s enduring influence.

“We are just about to celebrate our icon at the Grammy and you are all doing all this rubbish, as if you are trying to dirty something,” she said. “It’s not Fela or Fela’s family you are dirtying, it’s Nigeria.”

Reflecting on her father’s lasting impact decades after his passing, Yeni pointed out that the continued references to Fela only reinforce his legacy.

“Fela has done his own 27 years, 27 years, and you are still calling his name. That is just the answer to his greatness.”

Her comments have since resonated online, adding a reflective voice to a feud that has grown beyond music and into broader conversations about respect, legacy, and responsibility in Nigeria’s cultural space.

“I love Wizkid a lot, he’s my friend. I wish at the beginning he’d put a stop to it. We’re just about to celebrate our icon at the Grammy and you’re all fighting. You don’t see Bob Marley people do this.”

The clash began after Seun Kuti, son of the late Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo Kuti, suggested that Wizkid would no longer prosper in life unless he removed a tattoo of Fela from his hand.

The comment came amid an ongoing feud between Wizkid and his fan base, widely known as Wizkid FC.

Seun, during a series of Instagram Live sessions that stretched over several days, repeatedly criticised Wizkid FC, describing them as ignorant for comparing Wizkid to his late father. In the process, he also made controversial remarks, including cursing the parents of some fans, further intensifying the backlash.

After maintaining silence for a while, Wizkid eventually broke it with a series of sharp remarks. The singer reportedly lashed out at Seun Kuti, calling him derogatory names and going as far as claiming that he is bigger than Fela a statement that immediately sparked outrage and deeper controversy.

Seun Kuti responded swiftly, firing back with personal jabs. He mocked Wizkid’s height, accused him of being depressed, and claimed the singer had lost touch with his cultural roots. He also took a swipe at Wizkid’s live performance record, alleging that he had not shut down stadiums in recent times.

Reacting strongly to Wizkid’s comment about being bigger than Fela, Seun doubled down on his earlier claim, insisting that Wizkid would never succeed again unless he removed the Fela tattoo from his body.

Wizkid, however, appeared unfazed. Taking to his official X (formerly Twitter) account, the Essence crooner dismissed Seun Kuti entirely, suggesting the exchange was beneath him.

“Never go back and forth with a pig that lives in the mud. 2026 get yours! ❤️🦅,” Wizkid tweeted.

The post has since sparked widespread reactions online, with fans and observers divided as the long-running feud between the two figures shows no signs of cooling off.

Respected Nigerian music journalist and cultural critic Joey Akan has weighed in on the escalating online clash between Wizkid and Seun Kuti, offering one of the most pointed criticisms yet of the Grammy-winning Afrobeats star.

Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) page, the Afrobeats Intelligence founder argued that the ongoing chaos surrounding Wizkid FC is not accidental but rather encouraged by the artist himself.

According to Akan, the latest drama has stripped Wizkid of any claim to innocence regarding the conduct of his fiercely loyal fan base.

In a strongly worded post, Joey suggested that Wizkid has long benefited from and subtly fueled the bitterness his fans direct at other artists while publicly distancing himself from the fallout.

”The best part of this Wizkid and Seun drama is, without a doubt, we now know that FC’s ceaseless campaign of bitterness is endorsed from the top. I’ve always suspected it, but I believed Wiz to be better than directly grooming and feeding a divisive horde. But he isn’t. This episode strips him of plausible deniability when they go on attacks against his colleagues, and destroy sacred altars in his name. It is what he wants. I can’t respect that. I can’t respect formatting chaos using a monkey paw to do your dirty work. A sharp contrast to Burna Boy who doesn’t really put his 11 outsiders to task. He even kicks them. That, I can respect,” he wrote.

Joey’s comments come amid days of heated exchanges between Wizkid and Seun Kuti, a situation that has spilled beyond the artists themselves into fan communities, dragging industry figures and legacies into the mud.

Beyond fan behaviour, Akan also aimed at Wizkid’s perceived detachment from Nigeria after attaining global success. Drawing a sharp comparison with Afrobeat pioneer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, he accused Wizkid of abandoning the very culture and people that shaped his career.

”When Fela got international acclaim, he still fought for his people. When you got international acclaim, you denied your people, and the music culture that nourished you. I know my goat,” he added.

Joey Akan’s intervention has further intensified conversations online, with fans split between defending Wizkid and applauding the journalist for saying what many believe has long gone unsaid.

As the Wizkid–Seun Kuti saga continues to dominate timelines, it is clear that the debate has moved beyond music — touching on legacy, responsibility, and what true greatness should represent in Nigerian pop culture.

Afrobeats singer Seun Kuti has intensified his ongoing public feud with Wizkid, marking what he described as the seventh consecutive day of calling out the Grammy-winning artiste and his fan base, popularly known as Wizkid FC.

During an Instagram Live session on Wednesday, January 21, 2025, Seun Kuti launched fresh verbal attacks on Wizkid, referring to the singer and his supporters as “the biggest clout chasers in Nigeria.”

He went further to place a curse on the artiste, claiming Wizkid would not regain success unless he removed the tattoo of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti from his arm and replaced it with one of his biological father.

The outburst follows alleged remarks by Wizkid in which the “Essence” crooner reportedly described Seun Kuti as “a fool at forty,” mocked his use of a ring light to address Wizkid FC online, called him “hungry,” and claimed to be bigger than Fela Kuti.

Reacting to those comments, Seun accused Wizkid of harbouring resentment toward Fela despite having his image tattooed on his body. He argued that the singer lacks originality and fails to draw inspiration from his own roots.

Seun also criticised Wizkid’s multiple stage aliases, including Wizkid, Big Wiz, Machala, and Big Bird, alleging that the “Big Bird” nickname was taken from him, referencing his Instagram handle @bigbirdkuti.

In contrast, Seun expressed open support for Burna Boy, wearing a chain he said was gifted to him by the Grammy-winning singer. He praised Burna Boy for publicly acknowledging that Fela Anikulapo Kuti remains the only artist bigger than him.

Seun further questioned Wizkid’s decision to tattoo Fela instead of his own father, accusing both the singer and his fan base of failing to value homegrown inspiration.

He also alleged that Wizkid has been musically inactive in recent months and has not been booked for shows, though he provided no evidence to support the claim.

Additionally, Seun issued a warning to Asake, urging the singer to be cautious following his joint EP with Wizkid. He claimed Wizkid often seeks relevance by associating with other artistes.

Seun Kuti concluded the live session with more insults directed at Wizkid but stated that he would no longer respond to the singer or his fan base, insisting that his objective had been achieved. He added that his focus has now shifted to preparing for his scheduled performances later this year.

January 20, 2026, was marked by intense drama across Nigerian social media as Wizkid and Seun Kuti engaged in a fiery back-and-forth that quickly dominated conversations within the music industry.

Seun Kuti had earlier made headlines for repeatedly attacking Wizkid FC, describing them as the most ignorant fan base and heavily criticising them for calling Wizkid the “New Fela.” His comments also extended to personal jabs, including remarks about the late Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

After remaining silent for weeks, Wizkid finally clapped back aggressively, referring to Seun Kuti as a “fool at 40” and a “hungry bastard,” accusing him of unnecessary hatred towards both him and his fans. The Essence crooner went further to boast about his status, claiming he is bigger than Fela Kuti, while also making disparaging remarks about Seun Kuti’s wife.

In response, Seun Kuti doubled down, insisting that his father’s legacy remains unmatched. He mocked Wizkid’s height, called him names, and escalated the feud by making allegations involving embattled American music executive Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Seun Kuti wrote:

“Free Diddy. His Lagos babe is missing him. @Wizkdayo.”

Wizkid swiftly replied, saying Nigerians already know who “Diddy Baba” is, a statement many interpreted as indirect shade. Over the years, Burna Boy—another Grammy-winning Nigerian superstar—has often been linked to Diddy through online speculation, making Wizkid’s response raise eyebrows.

Wizkid wrote:

“We all know who be Diddy Baba for Naija. If na chain you want come collect too oh, make una free me, my mouth no good oh.”

Fuel was added to the speculation when popular blogger Tunde Ednut hinted that Wizkid’s reply wasn’t only directed at Seun Kuti but also subtly aimed at Burna Boy.

Tunde Ednut wrote:

“Omo, Burna Boy sef collect. Burna Boy won’t let this slide. The internet go sweet soon.”

As expected, fans quickly picked sides, with many now anticipating whether Burna Boy will respond or choose to stay silent as the drama continues to unfold.

The online space has remained heated over the past few hours following Wizkid’s decision to break his silence and respond aggressively to Seun Kuti, who has repeatedly criticised the singer and his fan base, Wizkid FC, for weeks.

Seun Kuti, son of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, has consistently expressed anger at Wizkid FC for branding Wizkid as the “New Fela,” describing them as the most ignorant fan base.

He has also accused Wizkid of lacking spiritual depth in his music and claimed that Wizkid FC cannot fill stadiums in the same way as Davido’s 30BG or Burna Boy’s Outsiders.

On January 20, 2025, Wizkid responded forcefully via his social media pages, launching personal attacks at Seun Kuti.

The Grammy-winning singer described Seun as a “hungry bastard,” insulted his wife, and went as far as claiming he is bigger than Seun’s late father, Fela Kuti.

In response, Seun Kuti fired back, mocking Wizkid’s height and warning both the singer and his fans to stop attaching themselves to his father’s legacy.

He also addressed the viral mockery of Fela’s trousers—popularly referred to online as “Pata gigan”—revealing that Ecobank reportedly spent millions of naira to showcase the outfit, countering claims meant to ridicule his father.

Seun Kuti wrote:

“Just be yourself, short man. You are also great, u go delete now, u no get mind, who is the pussy now beech.”

He further escalated the situation by making allegations about Wizkid’s personal life, including a controversial claim involving embattled American rapper Diddy.

As the exchange continues to unfold, reactions remain divided online, with fans of both artists trading words and calling for calm. Neither party has shown signs of backing down, keeping the feud firmly in the public eye.
