Femi Kuti Says Obi's Supporters Threatened To Burn Shrine Over His Comment by mubaudeenka: 12:32pm On Aug 13, 2022

Top musician Femi Kuti in a recent Instagram video post has addressed supporters of Labour Party (LP)’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, who have been on his case. Kuti disclosed that he got tons of threats against his family members and the supporters equally threatened to burn the Afrikan Shrine, simply because he allegedly tagged them as ‘zombies

The musician made it clear that all he did was come out to distance himself from the ‘obedient’ tag and give a clear context of what he meant

“I’m too angry, I’m too sad and depressed to be ‘obedient’. How can anyone come up with that term? How can you be obedient? Me I can’t be obedient in this country. End SARS, Killings…,”

Kuti explained. According to him, being obedient simply means being told what to do without putting up any restraints. Kuti added that he equally mentioned the relationship between Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and Obi, and how they would have remained close pals if things panned out the way they wanted.

So they actually threatened Femi simply for expressing his freedom not to be 'Obidient'? These Obi supporters are exhibiting terrorist tendencies. This is absurd. He's not yet president and they're threatening people up and down. What will now happen when he assumes office? God forbid o.

The kutis should allow Obidients be. They didn't attack Buhari that has ruined this country but they want to criticize Obi,they are not after the old man who is not physically and mentally fit to lead but Obi,they are not after the autocratic fulani man who's aim is to sell the entire nation infrastructure but Obi. They should expect the worse. Nonsense.

Every time Obi's supporters threatened this and threatened that. Same alliteration all the time. Please tell us another line of lie. This one is already stale.

For the coming elections in 2023, while some candidates are engaging the existential issues challenging our survival as a nation in their manifesto, others are throwing tantrums of sentiments as their own manifesto:

Obi poo pooed on my chair.

Obi slapped me.

Obi ate my food.

Obi called me a goat.

Obi winked.

Obi's children laughed at me.

Obi does not have a house.

Obi ate my biscuits.

Obi stepped on me.

Obi is not sitting well.

Obi is drinking water...

And surprisingly, their baits of vindictiveness catch ignorant fishes.

Some people hope to win the election with Obi's name.

When I say things like " are you listening to the words you are saying? " or " Be very careful of the words coming out of your mouth" and lastly, " Think! Before you make that statement." My friends tell me I should relax, that people need to speak their minds, regardless of whose ox is gored. Well, here we are ....

For a senior, supposedly cosmopolitan dude, Femi should have used his mind. We are in sensitive times, & a lot of people are angry at the situation in the country and have found hope in "being Obidient".

Now is not the time to mess with the term especially by calling obedience/ being obedient -Zombies. That, was a foolish act.

Sam omatseye tried it, how's that playing out for him?

We need to be careful.

You don't like obi? Just dey your lane. Focus on your candidate. (Vice versa for other candidates.)
The sky is wide enough for a thousand birds to fly without contact.

Loose lips sink ships and at best, put you in trouble.

A word is enough for the wise.

At the rate these extremist Peter Obi supporters are going, they're setting a dangerous precedent all in the name of campaigning and supporting their candidate. It's not by force for goodness sake. Is this how the rest of the country will be gagged and intimidated from criticizing their candidate if he becomes president?

This is so foolish of them. What is now the difference between Muslims fighting for Muhammed and fans fighting on behalf of obi? We must learn to tolerate our political differences. The same politicians that you're trying to fight are out there doing meetings and having nice time together, their children are even in abroad enjoying our stolen resources, while you the fighters are here in Nigeria suffering and still fighting on the behalf of people that put us in the situation.

Typical of Peter Obi's supporters. They can malign and insult Tinubu and Atiku but no one should talk down almighty Pitobi. The one and only saint politician in Nigeria.

Obi's supporters are undiluted anarchist. God will not allow anarchist rule Nigeria.

This guy is being paid to tarnish OBI and #OBIdient movement. This is just a flash in the pan, storm in a tea cup, the handwork of Tinubu. Which obidient will leave the movement agenda to be talking about burning Fela shrine when he is not Fela, he is just using his father's name and #OBIdient to trend as a forgotten artist.
#Obidient movement doesn't have touts and agberos of agbado jagabandit supporters that involve in thug live and physical violence.

I will suggest that Mr. Femi Kuti put additional security on his event centre... This is the guise they used to burn down TVC and BRT in Lagos state.. And its high time the AIG invite Peter Obi for questioning.

I don't really believe all of these stuff against Obi's supporters. They are baseless.

I am a supporter, and i respect your choice. Nevertheless, I wish u vote based on sound reason beyond tribe and religion.

---Femi Kuti have got freedom of speech and association---he shouldn't be threatened---Obi and his 'obedient' supporters should keep their rhetorics low---

I am very happy at the way the 'Obidients' are going about everything GEJ went the civil way and what did it earned him? humiliation. We should be ready to jump over the dead bodies of some people for us to achieve our ultimate aim in this country.
