Some Nigerians on Twitter have called on the Federal Government to properly brand Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s story and legacy in order to increase tourists influx in the country.

The call came following the visit of French President Emmanuel Macron to the New Afrika Shrine, which is a popular Fela ‘museum’.

Fela was a legendary multi-instrumentalist, musician, composer and pioneer of the Afrobeat music genre.
He was also a human rights activist, and political maverick.

The proponents of the branding explained that the late Afrobeats Legend remains an international brand even after death as he piques the interest of music lovers and Human Rights activists alike.
