Nigerian singer, Seun Kuti has chastised politician’s wives for not divorcing their husbands despite their partners’ ongoing embezzlement of the country’s funds.
Kuti questioned how ladies could still be in love with public office holders who stole so much during a recent Instagram live session.
The Grammy-nominated performer also voiced his annoyance and fury at the affluent politicians who, in their greed, are harming the lives of millions of Nigerians.
In his words:
“You cannot see any Nigerian woman divorce a Nigerian politician for stealing from the country. Can you love a thief? Somebody that is blatantly stealing, not because he lacks anything.
I can understand if he was hungry and he went out to steal to provide for his family. But these politicians are wealthy and are still ruining the lives of millions of people because of their greed. Yet, you can’t hear that their wives are seeking divorce.
Even if you are poor, regardless of how bad your situation is, to hurt somebody else just to eat is completely wrong.”
