Seun Kuti Critiques Nigerian Artists’ Spending, Highlights Father’s Wealth
Seun Kuti, son of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, recently shared insights about his late father’s wealth and criticized contemporary Nigerian artists for their extravagant spending. In a recording, Seun recounted that his father, Fela, generously provided for everyone in the Kalakuta Republic, supporting over 500 people daily. Seun revealed that as a child, his daily pocket money exceeded his teacher’s salary.
He recalled an incident where his sister tore a N50 note, prompting teachers to ban students from bringing such large amounts to school and to limit them to N5. Despite this, Seun admitted to hiding money in his socks to disobey the rule.
Seun criticized current Nigerian singers for their frivolous spending on luxury cars and lavish lifestyles, likening their behavior to that of politicians. He also highlighted that the money he was supposed to inherit was instead used to care for the less privileged. This is not the first time Seun has called out artists; he previously criticized Diddy over his assault case with Cassie.

Nigerian pastor Iren has spoken about the contributions of churches to Nigeria’s development and the importance of religious institutions in society.
During a recent service, the pastor discussed the influence of churches in Nigeria, highlighting their contributions to education and healthcare.
He recalled how Christian institutions helped establish schools and hospitals, pointing to the impact they have had on the country.
“When anybody says, ‘What has the church done?’ This is evidence: Igbobi College has produced Yemi Osinbajo, Babatunde Fashola, Femi Gbajabiamila. Baptist Boys’ High School, Abeokuta, produced Olusegun Obasanjo. The first hospitals and schools were built by Christians,” he stated.
Nigerian actress Bisola Aiyeola has shared her thoughts on why women, including those from other countries, are attracted to Nigerian men.
The actress recently spoke about the topic on a podcast, where the discussion centred on why women love Nigerian men. She explained that their intentionality and efforts to make their partners feel special can attract women.
“The average Nigerian man wants to take care of his woman, spoil her, give her everything that she wants. When a Nigerian man wants to toast you, ah, but he go enter you. They know what to say, they know what to do.”
What do you think? Do you agree with her?
