Known for his outspoken and controversial nature, Maga don pay sensation, Kelly Handsome has decried the government over celebrating Fela’s 20th year remembrance. The versatile singer said it is hypocritical and counseled the government to practice what they preach.
“I see a lot of hypocrisy going on, we are celebrating Fela and saying Fela lives on. Even the government that made his life here one earth, hell followed in the celebration. Na the same people make sure say this man no drink water drop cup. On my way to watch 2face perform at the Afrika Shrine, I noticed that the Fela statue around Ikeja roundabout does not have a head.
“I think that is so disrespectful. Why would you mold a statue and refuse to include the head? Let us live what we preach, the hypocrisy is too much. Do we really want this country to move on? We are just creating conditions that make it unfavorable. We need to tell ourselves the truth” he said.
The singer and music producer recently made a comeback in the music industry after a break of over 10 years.
