    3. ....In far away southern Italy.I met. An Italian guy who was so. So excited i came from Felas Country...I got the VIP booth for this. Which would have set me past thousands of Euros..My person none of your past president has such recognition.
      If you want i can give you the address of the Restaurant..its even easy the guy owns the only hill top restaurant in the south of Italy. I was humbled by this experience

    4. You shouldn't call peoples family stupid. Fela was a man that lived his life the way he WANTED to nd I think that's great. Are you Onyinye Gloria living your life the way you really want to, without allowing people influence your decisions, or even your environment? That's what's called freewill.

    5. I wonder d magnificent use ur family has been to ur village talk of. Nigeria...all dis 90's kids open mouth talk nonsense abt african legend

      Delete
    6. Onyinye gloria, u are indeed a fool. Tbe problem with Africans like u is ure stereotypical blindness. Yes Fela may have had his sociay unorthodox ways, but in no way wasn't He a leader a trend setter and an innovator. He preached freedom, preached human rights and suported a society that was free of corruption. So onye sharraappp. Nah only oyinbo thing u dey like. Anofiaaaaaa

    7. I won't insult U like the others but I will correct you. Fela wore his underwear at HOME and always dressed up to perform on stage. Educate yourself before spewing bile.

  32. Fela was a very great man in terms of music. Still respect him so much in that aspect. But this thing with multitude of women is what i do not understant. with all due respect, i think this is the greatest act of irresponsibility. I guess he married all his dancers.

  33. That's his first daughter Yeni standing next to her father in the first top 3 pictures

  34. Plenty women...just one man. Polygamy is not an issue for men in Nigeria but a woman is expected to remain faithful to one man..that's a real issue.

    What is wrong with her women in photo four, are they showing their swag or were they beaten???

    ReplyDelete
  35. So, Who are those saying Fela does not wear pant? If this is not pant, then what is it? Yeah, on stage!!! Life is a stage people. Plsssss.

  94. Yes his music lives n that all about him. I am not a fan of fela even his music doesn't move me. He is a bad role model to our younger men. When I hear of fela, what comes to my mind is that he died on AIDS. Wondered how many died with him(street gals)

What is there to emulate from him? Smoking? Nudity? Lewd performances? adultery? Lack of respect for women? Promoting prostitution? What? He is immorality personalized and throws tantrums like my two year old boy! Did any of his stupid songs brought about any change?

  108. No evidence fela died of aids, weed smoking and the entertainment industry have always been five and six. Fela lived his life how he wanted...and he believes everyman should live the same long as they not. Hurting no one. He married 27 wives when they were labeled prostitue,divorced them right after. If fela was alive, he'll bck his son seun that every man is free to love who he wants...and who wants him. That being said I think every nigerian needs a joint. Yall are so tensed haba.

  117. America gay right supported, Uk, Europe.. Why hasn't God sent fire and brimstone to them,the answer is NO. They are flourishing, that's why all of you people go to their embassies to hustle for vIsa because our nation does not have a vision! Anyone i repeat anyone who thinks seun kuti is saying rubbish is just ignorant and stupid, Una dry live for hell dry shout hell.. So funny many nigerians have no common sense, GEJ hasn't done meaningful since he was given the power, he made this set of rules and ya'll are giving him a praise.. Hmm too funny, Ignorance is surely a bliss.. Most of you will die in poverty its the simple truth! Learn to live your live, love one another, no be nigeria man go steal way den go stone am to death? hypocrites that's what you all are, Pastors are enjoying , using good cars, making investments, una go stand for pastor car on a hot sunday telling him bye bye while he leaves in his luxurious car/ Infact poverty is now normal for nigerian's we don't see it as something bad.. Seun is standing up for something at least una nko? What nothing, just come on linda and say loads of shit.. later this countries your all insulting will give you visa and you would like to end your life there, IF YOU ARE EXPOSED AND YOU HAVE MIXED WITH OTHER CULTURES YOU WILL TRULY UNDERSTAND THAT MANY NIGERIANS ARE JUST IGNORANT I SWEAR. Foolish people aeon oloshi! Yahoo boys are there making innocent souls cry, that one is not bad.. But when it comes to gay its like the worst thing ever, na ur yansh den dey fuck? Mind your business and learn to respect what others have decided to do, or una be God way go give punishment..? Bastards.. suffer na him una go suffer die including ur kids and next generations if your not care with this way of thinking like an animal..

    ReplyDelete
  118. Yeah, was truly Abami Eda. Love him die. I always say that if I were grown up when he was singing, I would have been one of his dancers. might not marry him though...
