[santanaincubus]

Man I really didnt expect or know that with all the money Fela has, he and his wives live and walk around the ghettos of Nigeria.

[jesilish]

the lady at 4:13 is hilarious.... "they nak me, they throw all my private part apart inside the bus.. lol. But in all seriousness, the people meant to protect people and uphold the law are the ones committing serious crimes and damaged... where do we stand?? something has to be done or else nothing will change. Dis happened over 20 years ago and is still happening.....

[yormeey]

Nigerian government, in the spirit of reconciliaion and respect should officially apologise to the family of Fela over the death of his mum.

[SuperQueenofAfrica]

@yormeey That incident was disgusting 

[PAKposse]

This is right on time. Fela the musical show has blow up, from fringe to Broadway and now coming to London at the national???? Dang, never thought I would see in my lifetime. As u know how we colonial third world governments are, once we see massa appreciate one of our own we follow like good house niggas. Expect to see Fela opening up in Barbados, Kenya...

[SuperQueenofAfrica]

@PAKposse what is this "house nigga " stuff ? i hate it when africans use slave terms, its so bad .. we have languages and expressions far superior to any type of hand out any whiteman can ever give us.. do better.
