Contrary to the public beliefs, popular Nigerian musician, Seun Kuti has stated that he is against European colonialism, and not the people.
The singer, who is known for his strong stance against imperialism and corruption, explained that his stance is not directed at the European people.
Speaking in a post on his Instagram page, Seun Kuti emphasised the need for a fairer world.
He noted that his critique of European colonization shouldn’t be misinterpreted as hatred for European people.
“I’m against European colonisation and imperialism but that does not mean that I’m against European people. Many Europeans have been our allies in the fight against greed and unfair systems, to make the world a fairer place for everyone.
“Being against colonisation does not mean being against Europeans, many have stood with us in the fight for justice and fairness.”
In other news, flamboyant Nigerian pastor based in the United Kingdom, UK, Tobi Adegboyega, has on Monday denied attending night clubs after being sighted numerous times in leisure spots with popular Nigerian celebrities like Davido, Cubana Chiefpriest.
Adegboyega said he only goes to restaurants with some of his friends from Nigeria and around the world.
Featuring on Channels TV’s Politics Today, the founder of Salvation Proclaimers Anointed Church, SPAC Nation, said: “I have never been seen in a night club but in a restaurant with some of my friends.
“I preached my first message at the age of eight and I have been preaching since then.”

He lost his immigration battle as the UK Tribunal ordered his deportation back to Nigeria.
The court said the pastor arrived in the UK on a visitor’s visa in 2005 and did not leave when it expired.
