Afrobeat singer and grandson of legendary Fela Kuti, Made
Kuti, has reacted to the negative criticisms over his marriage to wife Inedoye
Onyenso.
Recall that Kuti tied the knot with Inedoye Onyenso at a
civil wedding ceremony in Lagos in November 2023.
Their marriage has been subjected to criticisms by bigots
who accused them of “mixing blood” due to their different ethnic backgrounds.
Reacting to a recent post by an X user, @AdemolaOgudu, who
called him a “foolish Yoruba man” for marrying an Igbo woman, Kuti stated that
“believing ethnic superiority/inferiority is justifiable is slave mentality.”
He urged his critics to enlighten themselves with “history
and knowledge left” by Pan-Africanists like his great-grandmother Funmilayo
Ransome-Kuti, his grandfather Fela Kuti, Kwame Nkrumah, and Thomas Sankara.
He explained that Africa would gain more when united.
