He has been placed under arrest in line with the law. The Command appreciates the public for their concern and assures that the ongoing investigation will be detailed, transparent, professionally pursued; and justice will be manifestly served for all parties involved."

Kudos to Seun Kuti for doing the right thing for the first time in a while. I commend him for making his arrest less dramatic regardless of his biological link to a family of elite entertainers.

The order of things is that he who does the crime should do the time in jail.

He must serve as deterrent to those who think that there are no consequences for breaking laws and disobeying constituted authorities.

planned arrest to chase clout

How many times was Fela his father, arrested.

Can seun set a Guinness book of records with this?!

Wish they show this same energy whenever police are harassing unharmed citizens

Now he's feeling like Tupac.

I have never before seen anyone behave like that when they had their car bashed, not even to a civilian.
Highest they discuss and bargain price.

But you slapped a policeman just for bashing your car?


This one na clout a abeg.

See how e be like an innocent individual...he funked up big time . He should have slapped the officer on camera... thats a big evidence that can land him in jail for some years. But the problem we have in this country is if he reported without slapping the officer, the case will be swept under the carpet... even with this it will also be swept under the carpet. If na for all the pains police don put some families, I think dem deserve pass slap oo

Seun Kuti in handcuffs has more freedom than ALL the Obifrauds of Afghaneastern who have tied their collective identity and emancipation strivings to a third-class degree holder in philosophy who all else know as The Packaged Fraud. Just a minute, Chukwudi, Seun's day of freedom is but hours away, but Afghaneasterns have vowed to remain in the captivity of the mind and soul engendered by a simple verbal command by Sam Ekpa and sometimes, Nnamdi Kanu!

Anger is very bad

After God na government. E con be like chicken wey rain beat

Nice

Seun f'ed up


BTW, Wish election/mandate thieves could be handcuffed like this too 😃
