Seun Kuti while speaking on the latest episode of the Spill With Phyna podcast, said despite his family’s role in propagating Christianity in Nigeria, he is not a follower of the religion, even as he boldly declared himself to be a “juju” worshipper.
Seun Kuti who is the son of late afrobeat legend, Fela Kuti, advised other Africans to return to African traditional religions.
“It was my family that started Anglican side of Christianity in this country, if you look back at it. We are among the pioneers. So, we’ve been there, we’ve done that and we’ve moved on. And we hope Africans can follow suit.
“I don’t go to church. Na juju me I dey do.”
