He took a swipe at Nigerian singers and their frivolous spending while comparing them to his late father Fela.
According to him, Fela had more than 500 hundred people he was feeding daily at Kalatuta. He mentioned that the money he was to inherit were spent on taking care of the less privilege.
Seun speaks about his sibling
In the recording, Kuti noted that his sister once tore a N50 note and teachers had to warn all the pupils not to come to school with such huge amount again.
He further stated that the teachers also told them not to come to school with more than N5. However, he disobeyed and used to hide his money in his socks.
Seun Kuti said Nigerian singers spend money in buying cars and living large like politicians.
