‘Fela Was Not A Good Father, He Once Called Us Useless Children’ – Yeni Kuti reveals
Media personality, Yeni Kuti, the daughter of Nigerian Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, has said the late vocalist was not a decent dad.
According to Gist legit, Yeni talked recently with media personality Chude Jideonwo about how her father once said that she and her siblings were useless children.
She, on the other hand, noted that the late musician was a symbol and a role model, but she never dared confront him about how bad a father he was.

Yeni went on to say that Fela and his first son, Femi, were always at odds, but that she and Shola, who were shy probably because they were women, were the opposite.
She said, “He [Fela] was not quite a good father. No [I never told him that he isn’t a good father]. Maybe Femi, not me. Femi and Fela used to have battles. And Femi will give it to him straight.
