Tribalism has so destroyed you

Even to the extent you support a demon

Suffering and smiling

Though you can't be delivered, but I pity your end

How such a man became popular and famous is still the issue today.

That is what bad government can do.

A bad government can make a nobody popular.
Very ignorant, Fela was from an aristocratic family, he studied law then music in UK, his mother was a revered activist, who along with Herbert Macaulay, Pa Enahoro and a few others fought against British rule, mobilised the people...Fela too was an activist, this is why he is highly respected, it takes guts to be an activist in the military era, fighting for a higher cause...the family stood for a higher cause, sacrifice, enlightenment, fighting for justice and equality for all Nigerians and Africans, including your sorry self...what have your family stood for?

Fela went on to be an internationally acclaimed musician, invented afro beats, known worldwide for his musical genius and maestro...Jay z and Beyonce came to Nigeria because of Fela.

You think say na to dey live selfish life we dey talk here?

Sorry to burst your bubble, Fela never performed on stage with those pictures you see there. All those pictures you see there are him either relaxing at home or rehearsing.
.
And if you look at the man from his lifestyles of women, smokes and all. And then don't look at his msg, then you are missing something.
Just like most people judging the movie Spartacus with its nudity and sexual scenes, but that movie has one of the best storyline and plots that I have ever seen.
Fact... people wear briefs in their premises, I see nothing bad in Fela dressing how he likes, there are other thousands of photos showing him dressed elaborately, the fact that the press follows Fela everywhere is not his fault... those people are very mediocre instead of them to focus on what he stood for, his sacrifices for the people they are talking like senseless kids, wetin concern dem and wetin man wear, lol...genz mentality.

What am I supposed to judge his character with?
Is it what I can't see or hear?

This is what I have seen, and it looks exactly like what he says as well.

How come you want me to judge his intentions? Is that practicable?
You sound very childish

I still didn't see anything within your statement that trounces the fact that he was a morally bankrupt man, evident by his display of body in the open.
