Femi Kuti And Sister Call Out Band Member Who Ran Away In The U.S by weIMPORT: 2:06pm On Jul 30, 2018
Afro singer Femi Kuti and his sister Yeni have both called out one of their band members who absconded before a show in the United States of America.

The man identified as Aghedo Andrew was slated to perform with the band and every trace of him could not be located just at the point when he was utmost needed in the band.

Femi took to Twitter to narrate how bitter he was about the incident, but took time to praise other band members who held it down and ensured the show went smoothly.

He wrote:

My bassist Aghedo Andrew nearly ruined my concert yesterday in New York @SummerStage ,He disappeared 20mins before show time. I want to thank the rest of the band for standing strong and giving one of the best shows of the tour.

He has a good job. Paid quite well. Has enough money to resign properly and with all visas in his passport he can travel anywhere in the world. So that’s not an excuse.

He was then told by a follower not to worry about him as he will surely be fished out by ICE and Femi Kuti replied

I'm not worried. Still have dedicated musicians that are committed to holding the integrity of the music.

Not long after then, his sister Yeni Kuti also took to her Instagram page to call out the guy and even tagged President Donald Trump to notify him of the guy's action and hope that he is deported back to Nigeria and then disgraced.

She wrote:

The face of betrayal. I hope @realdonaldtrump catches you and deports you!!! Deserted band 20mins before concert because he wants to stay in America

After now, he'll start begging Nigerian Government to fly him back that he's stranded.
Russia deserters are back already, yours is underway, Mr Andrew.

THAT IS THE EXTENT OF FRUSTRATION NIGERIANS ARE FACED WITH BACK HOME IN NIGERIA.

This dreadlock Edo state born man saw a golden opportunity to live in the States and he quickly grab it with both hands.

Who will not LICK HONEY when it touches your fingers?

AYEFELE YORUBA GOSPEL SINGER NOW SUFFERING FROM SPINAL CORD INJURY FOLLOWING AN INCIDENT HE HAD SOME YEARS BACK ALSO FACED WHAT FEMI KUTI IS EXPERIENCING.

some of AYEFELE Band members disappeared while he was on a musical tour or concert in the United States with them.

Sports athletes are not left out of this defection.

Russia 2018 is also an eye openers where hundreds of Nigerian also defected but for the tight situation in Russia that made the migrant from entering the EU via Russia nobody would have known about them or let alone make a request that they are stranded in Russia and that they want to come back home to Nigeria.

EVEN THOUGH "RAIN MAKER" MAJEK FASHEK SAID HE SAW BEGGERS ON THE STREET OF NEW YORK,

MAJEK FASHEK SAID HE SAW HOMELESS PEOPLE ON THE STREET OF NEW YORK.

Most young Nigerians do not care. They still want to enter the land of opportunity.

God's Own Country.

Femi Kuti take the pain and embarrassment quietly. It is one of those things.

Femi just go and wait for him at the police cell.
He will soon be nabbed for wire fraud and other related offense.

I understand what the guy did his bad but they don’t need to insult him like that. Millions of Nigerians will do what he did, most are still here due to lack of opportunity.

Nigeria is very tough, our elites know that, so they shouldn’t get angry when Nigerians elope!

Femi handled this immaturely.
What if the guy is missing? What if he’s dead

The best thing he shouldve done was to make a fb post declaring him missing and make a police report. No need to publicly assume he ran away even thougj we all privately know that prolly what happened.

But he can turn to a big specie of lizard like alligator lizard, crocodile lizard or monitor lizard, he will definitely not remain the ugly looking, poor, hungry, wretched, visionless and dillusioned Nigerian lizard..
I know that American lizards are fatter, fresher and better nourished than Nigerian lizards..
