It’s Been A Tough, Emotional Week, Seun Kuti Speaks On Bereavement

Seun Kuti, the controversial Nigerian singer, has said this week has been quite tough and emotional for him. 

The 40-year-old mourned losing people close to him.

Seun, however, did not mention names of people close to him that passed away but advised his followers to be expressive towards those they love because they may not have a chance to do so again.

“Na only this machine for show una my belle oooo. Been a tough emotional week. Plenty of highs but people keep dying around me, making me confront my own mortality. Times short, tell people you love them, u don’t know if u will have the chance again,” he wrote. 

The Lagos State Police Command arraigned Seun on May 16, 2023.

Seun’s trial was recently stalled following the absence of Chief Magistrate Adeola Olatunbosun of the Yaba Magistrate’s Court.

Magistrate Olatunbosun was said to have resumed her administrative leave.

He was charged with assault of a police officer, an offence contrary to Section 356 of the Nigerian Criminal Code Act.

In the absence of the chief Magistrate, the registrar adjourned the case till September 27, 2023.
