Fela’s son Seun Kuti slams Peter Obi, says he lacks political integrity, video trends
Meanwhile, Legit.ng recalls reporting that Grammy-nominated Afrobeat singer, Seun Anikulapo Kuti, held no bars back as he criticised the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, during a recent interview with his namesake Seun Okinbaloye.
Seun Kuti said, while on the MicOn podcast, that Peter Obi is nothing but an opportunist who is merely using the Labour Party platform to actualise a selfish personal ambition.
He went on to state that Peter Obi is a staunch capitalist, which was why he was in the People's Democratic Party (PDP), but for his selfish desires, he jumped ship to a socialist party.
