I Won The Daddy Lottery With Fela – Seun Kuti

Popular singer, Seun Kuti has come out to say he felt lucky to have Fela Anikulapo Kuti as his father.

He recently had his say during a Instagram live session, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, despite having white woman in his house regularly, Fela never wore a suit to appear attractive to them, instead they rocked shrine regalia and plaited African hairstyles to look appealing to him.

Seun added that he definitely won the daddy lottery with Fela, and he remains his favourite person in the world.

His words, “My father had white women in his house, when I grew up there like two white women at least living with us. He always had white ones with the black ones.

Instead of Fela to wear a suit and tie so that the white women would see him as fine but the women were the ones who started wearing shrine regalia and African hairstyles. Fela never changed because of them but they changed because of him because Fela already knew who he was and his love for Africa.

I won the daddy lottery, my father is still my favourite person in the world. He’s my favourite person that I ever met, even though I only spent 14 years with him, they were 14 awesome years. He was my best friend and everything; he was a cool dad to me.

You don’t know how spoilt I was growing up. Up till now I still haven’t done laundry in my life, I still don’t know how to wash anything. I’m not bragging o, when I was going to school, I was sleeping in British Airways and snoring. In my dream, the thought crossed my mind ‘How will you wash your clothes?’ That thought woke me up like someone slapped me. Then I remembered washing machine and slept back.”

WOW.
