Seun Kuti Reveals What Fela Did to Teacher Who Flogged Him
Seun Kuti shared how his father, Fela Kuti, ensured his teachers didn’t punish him in school. He explained that Fela wanted to handle discipline himself and gave Seun a note on his first day, instructing the headmistress not to punish him.
Afrobeats singer Seun Kuti shared how his father, the legendary Fela Anikulapo Kuti, ensured his teachers didn’t hit him in school, as Fela wanted to handle discipline personally.
Seun Kuti shared that on his first day of school, his father gave the headmistress a note asking her not to punish him. When he moved to secondary school, Fela did the same with the principal.
Seun Kuti recalled an incident when a teacher hit him, prompting him to rush home to tell his father. He shared that while his father’s actions towards the teacher caused him pain, it also made him happy, as he had disliked that teacher.
Seun Kuti noted that some people view hitting children as an African practice. However, the 41-year-old singer, who turns 42 on January 11, 2025, clarified that it was Africans who were beaten, raising the question of who was inflicting the beatings.
Seun Kuti’s comments were in reference to the incident involving a three-year-old child at Christ-Mitots School in Ikorodu, Lagos, who was harmed by his teacher, Stella Nwadigo.
She repeatedly hit the boy for not writing numbers correctly in class. The incident sparked outrage on social media, leading the Lagos state government to arrest her.
