Seun explains that some people don’t like Tinubu largely because of limited access to him. The singer made this comment while guesting on the latest episode of The Honest Bunch podcast.

The singer reminisced how, as a child, he wondered why, despite being a ‘cool guy,’ many people ‘hated’ his father, the late afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

Seun said: “Being Fela’s son, growing up in Nigeria, I no even fit enter my girlfriend papa’s house. I go dey wonder say, ‘Wettin my papa sef dey do like dis wey nobody like am?’

“But I know my father; he’s a cool guy. So, what’s it about this guy that nobody likes? If I go anywhere, people would be like, ‘Oh! He’s Fela’s son…’ I know that pain. But I looked at all politicians’ children; the same people who criticise Tinubu today will praise his children tomorrow because of money.

“So, I understand that if you had access to Tinubu, you would love him. Your only hatred of him is your lack of access.”
