'If you had access to Tinubu, you will love him' - Seun Kuti

Nigerian afrobeats singer, Seun Kuti has stated a lot of critics of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu would love him if they have access to him.

He noted that the main reason some people hate him is because of their lack of access to him.

Seun made this known while featuring as a guest in the latest episode of The Honest Podcast.

He added that when he was a child, he wondered why some Nigerians ‘hated’ his father, the late afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, although he was a ‘cool guy’.

Seun said: “Being Fela’s son, growing up in Nigeria, I no even fit enter my girlfriend papa’s house. I go dey wonder say, ‘Wettin my papa sef dey do like dis wey nobody like am?’

“But I know my father; he’s a cool guy. So, what’s it about this guy that nobody likes? If I go anywhere, people would be like, ‘Oh! He’s Fela’s son…’ I know that pain.

"But I looked at all politicians’ children; the same people who criticise Tinubu today will praise his children tomorrow because of money. So, I understand that if you had access to Tinubu, you would love him. Your only hatred of him is your lack of access.”
