A very rare photo of the Kuti brothers from Nigeria. Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, Dr. Beko Ransome-Kuti and Professor Olikoye Ransome-Kuti all from the same parents and a bl00dline of activism.


The trio is known to have made marks that have enriched Nigeria's history in different ways.

Fela, the Afrobeat creator, was a bone in the necks of various governments and administrations, especially the military juntas. With his songs, he drove his criticisms down the spine of the various heads of state in Nigeria. For his activism, he was arrested multiple times and sent to jail many times too, mostly on trumped-up charges.

Dr. Beko, a medical doctor, was another very popular activist of his time. He gave the military governments a run for their money joining the likes of Gani Fawehinmi, Prof. Wole Soyinka and such other globally revered crusaders.

Prof. Olikoye, another medical expert, however, was not an activist in the real sense of the word. He put his energy into serving the country as Minister of Health in the same government that his two brothers cr!ticised so strongly. It is to Olikoye's credit that Nigeria initiated the Primary Healthcare system to bring healthcare closer to the grassroots.

What is your family doing to make Nigeria great?

Respect to the legend Fela. Imagine he was alive when Tinubu was campaigning to be president, he would joined force with the likes of the respected thespian, Pa Adebanjo to resist him. He was a true Omooluabi in the order of Awo. Not the fake ones we are seeing romancing with all sorts of crooks politicians

Abami Eda himself,Fela Anikulapo Kuti

Fela & Tinubu were in the struggle together in the past. The days of NADECO & protest against military govt.

Right now even the legendary Fela anikulapo kuti won't be happy with any yoruba supporting Tinubu

Go and buy sense, PETER OBI WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA ✍🏽

Dr Beko, very very rugged man. He died of lung cancer as a result of excessive smoking.

He founded Campaign for Democracy(CD) alongside other activists.

See as dem resemble men from colombia

90'S THROWBACK GREAT PIXELS FELA WITH HIS BROTHERS. TINUBU IN ALUTA WITH ABIOLA , PRTER OBI WITH HIS BENEFACTOR ABACHA

AqualinaXYZ:
Everyone has a throwback and family picture



Apart from Yekini Amuda Ogunlere that traded his biological parents name for a plate of ewedu



Tinubu the female student of Chicago that forfeited $420k drugs money to USA




All of a sudden is now the god of Yoruba people

Any IBO supporting OBI is a disappointment.

Olikoye is like ‘who will advise bro about smoking in public’, while Beko is like ‘I know the lecture I received the last time I advised him’.

Is it this fela family that is usually called the most talented/musical family in nigeria!
