IgbereTV reports that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo Friday at a town hall meeting in Edo State said that Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti deserved national recognition from Nigeria government.

He made this known while answering to a question from one of the people present at the town hall meeting, who asked that the National Theatre Lagos be named after the legendary afrobeat music icon.

However, he said he doesn't have the power to do that.

He said the late Afrobeat maestro deserves such national honour from the government even after his death as a father and icon of Nigerian music.

And you deserve national beating for being weak and short evil pastor, fella is million times ahead of you and the only man who saw tomorrow, don't let me Ruga you there.

Osinbanjo is fighting back subtly. He is endorsing what his boss will find nauseating (Fela deserving National honours) and rejecting what his boss finds needful ( No need to monitor the media). Something is actually brewing, we are watching. All I know is that it will be for our good as citizens.

Pastor oshibajo , pls be careful .. for the fact that you're the vice president of the country doesn't mean you should lose your spiritual identity....

Don't support what will not edify your identity as a Christian or man of God

This tribalistic vice president has come again.

So Fela is now your next tribal target to empower because he is from west.


And he is a pastor for that matter.

Fela and Christian virtues are miles apart

Watch your BP, it is rising too high over Buhari/Osinbajo matter. If you don't take care of yourself and your unstable emotions, you will just slump and die. This hatred that your parents planted n you is the reason why you are sad, angry, bitter, depressed and suicidal.

Jesus younger brother, go and die. Rev Fr Olubunmi Okogie is officially more Christian that you, he goes to shrine to watch Fela sing.

Keep kwayet kayode.

He's right. Fela does deserve national honours. But why do Yoruba heroes only get honours when they are dead and unable to enjoy it?

This Osibanjo is not smart at all. Your boss has a history with Fela and you think immortalizing him would do you any good. Education does not mean intelligence.

How do you know he's more christain than me? The kingdom of God is Not by position...

yes and long over due...it's now in your hand to ask Buhari for such an honour...

Not under Buhari..

Fela was more like his tormentors back then but Fela was only being realistic

Be honest with yourself. You and all those who would like your comment are ONLY SADDENED by this because IT IS A RIGHT CALL!

It hurts your kind so badly whenever the government says or does what is right. Your desire is to ALWAYS see them make the wrong decisions and falter so you could think your unbridled hatred for them is justified.

So, next time, just save yourself the stress of trying to make sense and type I hate this man. We will understand son.

Remember the MKO masterstroke? Never say never.

What I meant was, very few persons expected such could happen, but it did.

This could happen as well. If not for anything, for its political expediency.

it's the image and struggles of Fela resonates with the youths. You favour Fela and you just might find favour amongst the youths.

It's called politics bro. It can happen. The fact the VP has mentioned it suggests they just might have started tinkering with the idea already. Maybe some memorial of sorts.

He created Afro beat, which now spun millions of dollars annually

Smh

Ok

What is the concordance with light and darkness?

Propaganda!

If Fela were alive, he won't be docile, he will criticize this government and it's tyranny and I'm sure this government will have him in jail by now.

Stop crying crocodile tears, when heroes who you actually hate are dead and buried.
