Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye, has carpeted Seun Kuti, singer and youngest son of the Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, saying he is irrelevant without his father’s name.
Gatekeepers News reports that the duo engaged in an argument via Twitter over political supports in the 2023 general elections.
The issue started when Seun referred to the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi as an opportunist.
Peter Okoye had responded in Obi’s defence triggering a back and forth which led to Seun accusing him and his twin brother of campaigning for president Buhari in 2015.
In his response, Peter said, ”We PSQUARE have never campaigned for any Presidential candidates before now except for PETER OBI. Did we perform for President Buhari during his inauguration in 2015 YES. He was already the President! GO AND VERIFY.
”My late Father was a nobody, but today everyone knows the OKOYES. Dude, try removing “KUTI” from your name let me see if you are relevant.
”Remain in that your Local SHRINE while people like us and others continue excelling Globally. YOU CAN’T SHAME THE SHAMELESS.
“You had no music career in the first place. All you do is brag about your family background.”
