Son the late Afrobeats King, Seun Kuti has reacted to the now-famous interview of his father’s protege, Dede Mabiaku exposing the real cause of his father’s death.Β
The singer took to his Instagram page to speak on why he never shared the story his father told him while in custody of the NDLEA 22 years ago. According to him, the time is not right and information should be released strategically not in a disorderly manner.
He explained that he would have exposed the cause of his father’s death after gathering concrete evidence. However, with the way the information was exposed it would be extremely difficult for him to do so.
He wrote, Rage against oppression and imperialism!! My bro Dede Mabiaku is asking why I am not sharing the story Fela told me and my friends who were jailed with him by General Bamayi! Because the time isn`t right. Because it is information that should be released strategically not just because we want to!
The Adage says βΛ until the hand of the child can grip the handle of a machete the child shouldn`t go around asking how his father died` The Nigerian people haven`t gripped the cutlass yet and now that u have spilled the beans and they know we know be sure all evidence that hasn`t already been silenced will be silenced now!! Thanks but no thanks.Β #getthesax
