As usual, @bigbirdkuti , father of a girl child, grandson of an iconic woman, has very interesting views about the current subjugated state of the African woman. I had him interviewed as part of TANI OBÌNRIN?, a decolonial documentary that traces the origin of patriarchy in Yorùbáland. This documentary aims to sincerely answer the important question: have we always been this patriarchal as a people or colonialism taught us how to disregard our women? Wait for TANI OBÌNRIN? (WHO IS A WOMAN?)

When people hear the name Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti fifty years from now, what should they remember first;not the car, but the woman?

That question formed one of the most thought-provoking moments of our conversation with @Bigbirdkuti as we continue to work on “TANI OBÌNRIN” ?

For many, Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti is remembered as the first Nigerian woman to drive a car. Yet her legacy reaches far beyond that popular narrative. She was an activist, organizer, educator, nationalist, and a woman whose influence helped shape generations.

Our conversation explored the stories, struggles, and impact that often receive less attention than they deserve.

Anticipate “TANI OBÌNRIN” a research based project examining womanhood.

Fela Kuti makes history as first African to receive Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award

Afrobeat pioneer and music icon Fela Anikulapo Kuti has become the first African artist to be honoured with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, cementing his legacy as one of the most influential figures in global music history.

Femi Anikulapo Kuti @Femiakuti performing “Beng Beng Beng” at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 1999. The song was banned by the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation during the military era, and the ban was upheld under the Obasanjo administration.

Despite this, the song became a massive hit outside Nigeria, contributing significantly to his success at the KORA Awards and beyond.

It’s also worth noting that Egbon Femi Kuti has been touring internationally with his band, Positive Force, since 1988, consistently performing every year. #Legend ✊🏿❤️

Fela Anikulapo Kuti broke down in tears while recording this song “Unknown Soldier.” He was overwhelmed with emotion, channeling deep pain and grief as he revisited the 1977 military attack on his Kalakuta Republic home and the death of his mother, Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti.

I hope that one day the Federal Government will formally apologize to his family for her death and properly honour her legacy. In 2012, under President Goodluck Jonathan, the Federal Government proposed placing her image on the N5,000 note, but the Kuti family rejected the gesture. #Heroes

Fela Anikulapo Kuti released the song “Army Arrangement” at the height of military rule in Nigeria, and not long after, he was sent to prison on controversial charges. The song was a direct and fearless critique of the Nigerian military government. In it, Fela exposed the alleged disappearance of $2.8 billion in oil revenue, electoral fraud, widespread poverty, and systemic corruption. He also openly challenged former president Olusegun Obasanjo to a public court debate, branding him and his second-in-command, Musa Yar’Adua, as thieves.

I have exp0sed what i want to exp0se, that the message against my father comes from their master at the top. It's the ancestors that exp0sed him, i'm sure if they ask him, he doesn't know how he typed that thing he posted, but the truth just had to come out." - Seun Kuti
