Popular Nigerian musician Seun Kuti has voiced strong criticism against billionaires in the country, challenging their narratives of self-made success.
During a recent address to the Igbo community, Seun Kuti, the son of legendary musician Fela Kuti, contended that true affluence in Nigeria is often linked to connections with government officials and contracts awarded by politicians.
Seun Kuti emphasized that many billionaires who publicly criticize the government are, in fact, benefitting from political ties.
He pointed out that influential traders, particularly in the bustling Alaba markets, often rely on these connections to amass their wealth, contrary to claims of complete independence from governmental support.
