Seun Kuti Slams Tinubu’s Fuel Subsidy Removal, Calls It a “Wicked Decision”
Afrobeat musician Seun Anikulapo-Kuti has strongly criticized President Bola Tinubu’s decision to remove the fuel subsidy, labelling it as a “wicked” move that neglects the welfare of Nigerians.
While the President claimed that the subsidy removal was a “tough” but necessary choice for the good of the country, Kuti expressed his disagreement, stating that it was far from being a difficult decision and was instead detrimental to the people.
During a heated Instagram Live session, Kuti condemned the government’s decision to purchase a $150 million jet for the President while critical sectors like education remain underfunded.
He argued that the funds used to acquire the jet could have been better spent on building and sustaining schools, which would have a lasting impact on future generations.
He pointed out that the $150 million could finance the construction and operation of 10 well-equipped primary schools for at least 20 years, ensuring the education of multiple generations of children.
Kuti emphasized that such spending priorities reflect a lack of consideration for the struggles of ordinary Nigerians.
He questioned the process behind the jet purchase, asking, “Who donated the $150 million jet for Tinubu?
Who was consulted before making such an acquisition?” He further stressed that the President’s actions regarding the fuel subsidy and economic decisions, such as floating the naira, only compound the challenges faced by citizens.
Kuti’s remarks challenge the narrative that the President’s decisions are being made in the interest of the people.
He argued that there is nothing “tough” about the removal of the subsidy and other financial policies, calling them harmful to the nation’s wellbeing.
