Grammy-nominated afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has said his life is under threat.
He accused some unnamed persons of wanting to “destroy and kill” him for speaking the “truth.”
Speaking in a recent video message shared via his Instagram page, the controversial singer said he has lost count of court cases and police invitations he has received over the years.
He said he is fighting many secret “wars” alone.
Kuti said, “I will reveal it here today. They want silent me for this country. I can’t tell you how many wars I am fighting alone. I can’t tell you how many cases in court for nothing, how many police invitations left, right and centre for nothing. For just saying the truth, everybody is inviting the police on me.
“Because I am saying the truth, they are trying to destroy and kill me. They are trying to bring me down and destroy my name. It’s not easy. They have been silencing speakers of the truth since 705 BC.”
