Afrobeat musician, Seun Kuti, has called for African governments to ban the leader of the United Kingdom’s Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, from entering their countries.
This comes despite accusations from Vice President Kashim Shettima and others who claim that Badenoch has denigrated Nigeria. She has reportedly stood by her comments on the country, allegedly describing her upbringing in Nigeria as overshadowed by fear and insecurity in a nation plagued by corruption.
During a recent Instagram live session, Kuti reacted strongly to Badenoch’s remarks, stating that she should be prohibited from stepping foot in Africa.
He said, “Many have been praising this woman [Kemi Badenoch]; someone who has been insulting us, not only us but our ancestors. She said we should pay Europeans for colonialism.
“She’s saying we should pay them for killing millions of our ancestors; for all the atrocities that they committed in our lands.
“She’s someone who should be banned by African governments from stepping into Africa. Once she steps into Africa, she should be jailed.”
