Another day, another controversy. This one involving 2Baba and the son of afrobeat music legend, Fela Kuti. A video was circulated on social media showing Femi Kuti at the shrine saying stuff like “protest? “protest of one day? What kind of stupid protest is that?” Everyone took his words to be a condemnation of 2Baba’s protest. Femi Kuti has been on Twitter, clarifying what he said.
Do see below:

Don't know if they inform you personally but I can be rest assured some kind of information was passed onto some authorities at the Shrine! https://t.co/bqzyMqRGJ4

I have no problem with the protest . I have a problem with using the Shrine at first without informing me & finding out on social media . https://t.co/pwY7nGigJB
