Seun Kuti, an Afrobeat singer and son of the late Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, has made a bold statement regarding the ownership of Lagos, asserting that “Lagos is white man’s land.”

This comment comes amidst ongoing discussions and claims about the ownership of Lagos by various Nigerian ethnic groups.informationguidenigeria

Kuti’s perspective, however, shifts the focus from ethnic claims to the economic realities of the city. He highlights that a significant portion of Lagos’s real estate and wealth is actually in the hands of foreigners.JAMB Result
