Government officials should be made to swear by Ogun- Fela’s daughter,Yeni  Kuti speaks on corruption

August 10,2017

By Patricia Uyeh,
Afrobeats legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s first daughter, Yeni, in a recent interview talked about her father, corruption, traditional religion otherwise known as ‘juju’ and more.
Speaking on how to combat corrupt government officials, Yeni said:
“Just as Sophie Oyewole has suggested, let them use it to swear in government officials and we shall see if anybody will continue to steal our money in this country or not. I am sure that if they are made to swear by Ogun or some other fearsome African deity, there will be no more corruption,”
She also revealed that she misses her dad 20 years after his death. She said:
“It’s 20 years since my father died, but it doesn’t seem as if he has been gone for so long. I miss him and I still talk to him in my mind. He and other departed members of my family have also appeared to me in my dreams. I don’t know if it is right to say that they appear to me, but I see them in my dreams. I dream of them a lot.”
“A self-confessed ‘free thinker’ with a bias for ATR, Yeni also disclosed that some people had come to her in the past and claimed they had messages from her father. But she never listened to them. “I believe in life after death. Also I believe that if my father has a message for me, he will come directly to me and not go through someone I don’t know or like. If anybody tells me that Fela has sent a message to me through him, I would tell him to ask my dad to appear to me directly himself,”
