Afrobeats singer Seun Kuti has reacted to the recent death of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, offering sharp criticism and deeper reflection on the state of leadership in the country.

In a viral video, Seun questioned why many Nigerians celebrated Buhari’s passing, describing such reactions as misguided. He argued that real justice would have involved holding the former leader accountable while he was alive not merely rejoicing over his death.

The outspoken son of music legend Fela Kuti also revealed what he described as a shocking misuse of public funds. According to Seun, the Nigerian government allegedly spent a massive sum monthly on Buhari’s medical care in the United Kingdom while millions of Nigerians suffered from a broken healthcare system.

He condemned the priorities of a country that allowed a former president to live in foreign luxury while average citizens struggled for basic care. Seun expressed frustration that taxpayer money supported elite medical treatment abroad, yet failed to improve the system at home.

“Buhari should have answered for his leadership while alive,” he said. “Now, we clap because he’s dead, but nothing really changes. His family still holds their wealth, and the system remains the same.”

Seun’s comments added another layer to the public discourse, which has remained sharply divided since the announcement of Buhari’s death. While some citizens expressed relief, others urged restraint and respect.

By calling attention to injustice, inequality, and systemic failure, Seun Kuti continues the activist legacy of his father, using his platform to demand accountability in both life and leadership.

Rejoicing over the death of another human makes absolutely no sense.

May the soul of the departed rest in peace

People rejoice to good news, you are free to celebrate with them.

There is no need to slam anyone.

People with their own choice. I really feel buhari really created division in the country than ever before. That's why I have my own grudge with him.

Notwithstanding rip to him

I don't even understand people talking about karma...man died at over 80, fulfilled his dream of becoming a president , probably stole enough for his next 20th generation...

what Karma abeg?😹

Seun don lick small poli before e make the statement.

Seun too like Arizona & loud !

Bad leaders should rather account for their deeds while still alive, not when they die and people start rejoicing, singing and dancing. For what? That's abnormal!

Exactly... U couldn't face him when he was alive...... D man is old already and died at a ripe...

RIP to Buhari.

What ever his shortcomings, I forgive him. We are all corrupt and part of the system just that we haven't gotten the opportunity.
Most people will do worst, human government is not easy.
And, just so you know, many people under him benefits more than him as the president. E.g Emefiele.
Imagine how many people under him contested for the presidency, they're all looters

Everyone dey look for relevance these days.

Meanwhile, let's wait for Portable, Bobrisky and others

We all know those celebrating the death of Buhari. His only offence according to them is he caged Nnamdi Kanu.

Na marijuana dem take bury dis one father lol. Plenty Marijuana!!!

In the face of a man’s death, a Christian never rejoices, but reflects on the serious responsibilities of each person before God and before men, and hopes and works so that every event may be the occasion for the further growth of peace and not of hatred.

It is a disgusting and cowardly act.

Baba Bu has enjoyed his life to the fullest, they didn’t challenge him in life. Now you rejoice that he is dead like he would give a sigh.

E no concern am, the struggle is for the living. Baba has his found rest. The pain or joy of the people wey remain na for their pocket.

I liked Pres. Buhari he was a warrior, statesman and a good leader. RIP.

Almost condemned his assertion until I read the whole stuff. .....spot on ✅️✅️
But people who rejoiced ain't wrong though 😎😎😎

It's the usual suspects but they will expect others to show them love after hating on others.
They will continue to collect from others what they dish out. No more liberalism from the SW.

Man stole, murdered people and died of old age and una dey celebrate? He lived life to the FULLEST!!!

Let's call a spade a spade, nobody liked Buhari but his children.

But he made sense unless you didn't understand his statement..rejoicing over his death won't and hasn't changed anything and probably wouldn't,as a matter of fact,people jubilated as if Naija had won the world cup when Abacha died in 1998 but guess what, nothing has changed still..

As my dad mused:

"It seems like UK is their hospital, Nigeria is their cemetery."

Wrong again as usual. Wrong wrong wrong he's loved by millions of Nigerians.
You people are always reading the mood of the people wrongly, assuming everyone his sentimental like you.
If Buhari should run for office again, at the very least he will still win the North. Fact

Celebrating the death of someone that lived well into old age😂
