He disclosed that he was frustrated after the DMW boss refused to offer him a wedding invitation.

Kuti stated this in a recent episode of ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ hosted by content creator Bae U Barbie.

According to him, he could not sleep for a week after Davido snubbed him for his wedding invitees.

He explained that it was painful because Davido and his team used to drink free beer at his family’s bar.

“Davido would come to the African Shrine with 100 guys, and he would drink without paying, but when it was time for his wedding, I didn’t get IV. I was pained, I didn’t sleep for one week,” he said.

Babangida Annulled 1993 Election Because He And Abiola Were Fighting Over Money – Seun Kuti

Meanwhile, Kuti has claimed that the 1993 presidential election was annulled because former Head of State, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB) and MKO Abiola had a fight over money.

Abiola had contested the 1993 presidential election under the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

While Abiola was the clear favourite to win the election, IBB annulled the poll.

Following the annulment, Abiola was arrested and jailed.

However, speaking recently via an Instagram Live, Kuti claimed that, “When Yomi Johnson killed Samuel Doe, he ran to Nigeria. Doe was supported to come to Nigeria then.

“There were rumors back then that Samuel Doe’s money caused a fight between IBB and Abiola, this made the former Head of State refuse to give him the presidency.”

Seun Kuti also disclosed that Dele Giwa was killed because he was planning to expose a wealthy Nigerian drug dealer.

He added, “It was alleged that Dele Giwa was about to expose a big man in Nigeria for selling drugs. The best hard drugs in this Lagos are sold in Island, children of the rich are selling it.

“What killed Dele Giwa then? How many musicians, actors have been caught over their connection to hard drugs before the advent of Yahoo? Many people in this country are compromised in this drug dealing business.”

Accept broke men or put up with busy ones – Kanayo O. Kanayo tells ladies

Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has shared his thoughts on relationships and what women may need to consider when choosing a partner.

In a recent post on his Instagram page, he advised ladies to think carefully about their priorities and what they are willing to accept in a relationship.

Kanayo O. Kanayo suggested that women who are not willing to be with someone who is financially struggling may need to be prepared to date someone who is very busy and has limited time to devote to a relationship.

He presented this as a trade-off, implying that women may need to make a choice between these two options.

On his Instagram page, Kanayo wrote:

“The gentleman’s code: If you don’t want a man who is broke, you are going to have to put up with a busy one.”

In another news, Kanayo defends Davido amid backlash over economic comment.

In a recent interview, Davido advised African Americans against relocating to Africa, citing Nigeria’s dire economic conditions as a case study.

The statement has since ignited widespread criticism, with many calling for the musician to apologize.

However, Kanayo, currently in the UK, addressed the controversy in a video shared on Instagram, urging Nigerians to respect Davido’s right to free speech.

The veteran actor highlighted that Davido, despite his privileged background, made the comments out of concern for the average Nigerian.

Dismissing the demands for an apology, Kanayo said:

“Nigerians make una leave Davido alone about the comment he made; it’s freedom of speech and he made it in good faith. It is left for those in power to work harder to give us a better Nigeria. We need to build a better Nigeria,” he said partly.

“Some people say he should apologize; apologize for what? He’s a Nigerian and he made his statement in good faith. Those who criticize us wants the best out of us. Davido and his family can feed well but he speaks for other Nigerians who cannot,” he added.

Hold Naira Marley, Zinoleesky responsible if I die, says Lil Smart

Singer and dancer Lil Smart has made shocking allegations against his former Marlian Records colleagues, Naira Marley and Zinoleesky.

In a series of Instagram posts on Sunday, December 8, Lil Smart claimed he was violently attacked by the duo and their associates.

According to him, the ordeal began when he was allegedly “kidnapped” and taken to a remote location where Naira Marley, Zinoleesky, and others—identified as “INN” and “MMP”—brutally assaulted him. Lil Smart alleged that he was stripped naked, and his attackers attempted to break his legs with stones.

He recounted narrowly escaping to the expressway without clothes and shared videos showing his injuries, including bruises on his legs, arms, and face. Another video purportedly shows Zinoleesky chasing after him.

Lil Smart also accused Naira Marley of wanting to “kill him,” alleging that the record label was trying to subject him to the same fate as Mohbad, another former Marlian Records signee who tragically died in 2023.

In a chilling claim, Lil Smart shared a screenshot of a message suggesting that Marlian Records planned to harm him, similar to what allegedly happened to Mohbad.

This accusation follows widespread controversies surrounding Naira Marley and his crew after Mohbad’s death, with many Nigerians demanding accountability for the alleged harassment and intimidation faced by artists under the label.

The Marlian Records camp has not yet responded to these new allegations. As the story unfolds, public outrage continues to grow, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the claims against Naira Marley and his associates.
