On Friday night at the 2015 #Felabration concert, veteran Nigerian rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem, once again goes after former Nigerian President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo with a jab about his financial corruption.
He reminisces that in 1976 President Buhari jailed the afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
As he performs before live a audience at the all-stars concert, Eedris says,
Quote
"Obasanjo is a thief and therefore deserves not to be celebrated", adding, "In 1976 Buhari jailed Fela, na the same old people dey rule us today."

Serious things, serious boldness. Buhari still came back to rule 40 years after jailing Fela and people are complaining that he is in rule. Who voted him?

Buhari was not in power 1976, Fela was jailed in 1984 for a just reason you guys are too young then, Fela was jailed because of not obeying the law, there was law then that states you are not allowed to take more than 200 dollars cash with you when traveling out of nigeria but Fela was seen with 1,500 dollars cash although he said it was for his crew but he was suppose to divide it among them, so with that he broke the law he was tried fairly and he was sentenced i am a big Fela,s fan but he broke the law if Fela was also in any western world he would have also face the music, you guys should get your facts clear.
