Seun Kuti On Why He Won’t Vote in The Coming Nigeria Elections

Seun Kuti isn’t the type to mince words when it comes to airing his opinion on national issues. Recently on Wazobia Tv the Afrobeat star declared without a doubt that he would not vote in the coming elections because he does not believe in the process and the creation called Nigeria.

“Right from 1960 people in government have never been pro-people. I don’t believe the government we have in view have the interest of the people at heart. Count me out of the election, I will not vote” he said.
“Nigeria is not an African creation. It’s not Africa that created Nigeria. It wasn’t our forefathers that came together to create Nigeria. It’s an European who sat down in his house to create this country. This country was not designed to work. Europeans understand that for a country to work ,it has to share a common language, common culture and a common identity” he added.

He enjoined the youth to take their destiny in their own hands and rise to participate in politics en masse, adding that they make up the largest demography of the population.“ I can participate in politics only when the young people have created their own platform. We need a young person that can connect directly with the youths” he added.
