Femi Kuti recognizes Obidient Movement, says Peter Obi good for President
Nigerian Afrobeat musician, Femi Kuti, has revealed his recognition of the Obidient Movement uniting the supporters of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
Femi Kuti chided those behind a report which quoted his words out of context after his performance at the Afrika Shrine last week. He berated those who cited him as calling Obidient members zombies.
Femi Kuti explained that he is only not comfortable with the concept -Obidient, saying if Peter Obi wins and changes Nigeria, it is for the best of all Nigerians.
The report had cited Femi Kuti as saying “how can you be Obidient in this chaos? I am not Obidient. Tell me, at 60, why am I Obidient? You said I should be Obidient, sit down, be peaceful. Are you all okay in this country?”
Femi Kuti declared: “You are such liars. “Of what benefit is it to the people when you take my words out of context like this.
“I said I am too angry at my age to be obedient. I do not like the ‘term’. But if Peter Obi wins and actually changes the country, better for all of us.”
