Seun Kuti, an afrobeat singer, has spoken in on the ownership of Lagos State.
According to him, Lagos is neither for Yorubas nor a no-land, man’s but rather a European satellite slave port.
Before the governorship election on Saturday, there is an ongoing argument about who owns Lagos.
While actor Yul Edochie stated that the metropolitan city belonged to the Yorubas, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the youngest son of the legendary Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, recommended people to learn about history, claiming that many people know nothing about Lagos.
He wrote: “Lagos is no man’s land – WRONG. Lagos is Yoruba land – WRONG AGAIN. Lagos is a European satellite slave port – CORRECT!!
“You don’t know Lagos!! #getthesax
