Controversial Nigerian musician, Seun Kuti has revealed why his father, Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Kuti, married 27 women in one day.
We’d recall that in 1978, Fela caused a frenzy in the entertainment world after he married 27 women in one day.
His son, Seun while speaking as a guest on the ‘Fresh Off The Boat’ podcast disclosed that his father’s decision to take that bold step was an attempt to preserve the honor of the ladies who worked with him and were being perceived as ‘prostitutes.’
Seun explained that his father’s female back-up singers and dancers used to live with his father in the same house, and were thought by some people as prostitutes until he decided to get married to all of them to preserve their honor and maintain their dignity.
He said:
“My father was under immense media propaganda. He was very scrutinised. And most of it were directed to the women that were in his life; his female back-up singers, dancers. They all lived together with my dad but the media started calling them prostitutes.
“So my dad, in order to preserve their honour and dignity, asked them if they would choose to be his brides so nobody would call them names anymore and they all agreed. That was how the marriage happened.”
Canadian left-back, Alphonso Davies said the songs of Nigerian music icon, Davido are among the songs he often uses to prepare for football matches.
Alphonso Davies is arguably one of the most wanted wingbacks in the world due to his pace, tackling, dribbling, and ability to score goals from tight angles.
The 23-year-old defender who is a citizen of both Liberia and Canada, left the United States club, Vancouver, for Bayern Munich on January 1, 2019, for a transfer fee worth €14 million.
Since then, Davies has played 194 games, scored 10 goals and provided 31 assists in all competitions for Bayern Munich. He has helped Bayern to win one UEFA Champions League, one FIFA Club World Cup, Five Bundesliga titles, one UEFA Super Cup, and many other titles.
In a video the official Instagram page of the German Bundesliga posted earlier in the week, Davies was seen making a list of songs that keep him motivated before football matches.
The Canada international said, “If I could only have five songs that I could listen to before games? That’s very tough! Okay, number one is ‘Nonstop’ by Drake, number two is ‘Fein’ by Travis Scott, number three is ‘Tombstone’ by Rod Wave, number four is ‘Legend Can Never Die’ by Davido, and number five is ‘No Competition’ by also Davido.”
Alphonso Davies played 41 games for Bayern Munich this season in which he scored 2 goals and provided 6 assists in all competitions. His current contract with Bayern will expire on June 30, 2025.
