Made Kuti, Afrobeat singer and grandson of legendary Fela Kuti, has reacted to a recent post by an X user, @AdemolaOgudu, who called him a “foolish Yoruba man” for marrying an Igbo woman.
Kuti and his wife, Inedoye Onyenso have been together since November 2023.
Reacting to the criticism by the X user, Kuti stated that “believing ethnic superiority/inferiority is justifiable is slave mentality.”
He urged his critics to enlighten themselves with “history and knowledge left” by Pan-Africanists like his great-grandmother Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, his grandfather Fela Kuti, Kwame Nkrumah, and Thomas Sankara.
He explained that Africa would gain more when united.
