VETERAN MUSICIAN, DEDE MABIAKU KICKS OVER FELA KUTI AND NAIRA MARLEY COMPARISON
Veteran Musician and producer, Dede Mabiaku has described the comparison between Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley and the legendary Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, as inappropriate.
Mabiaku slammed fans who described Naira Marley as a rising Fela, adding that it trivialised the essence of Fela’s struggles.
He said, “I hear a lot of people comparing that young man to Abami Eda, Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Why are you trivialising the essence of your matrys?
According to Mabiaku, internet fraud was not justifiable in any form, even for reparation which fraudsters often refer to as a defence.
He said, “The typical African culture and tradition teaches you not to steal or do tricks to rip off the next man of what is duly his.“Some people are talking of reparation. You come out and stand up to say ‘these are what my rights are. You denied me of my rights and I want them back and by law and by rights, I am going to fight for it’.“And you duly fighting for it, not sneak through the computer to carry people’s money and do yahoo or 419.
Mabiaku also slammed the ‘soapy’ dance as immoral and unafrican.
