Nigerian singer and nephew of the embattled musician Seun Kuti, Made Kuti, has finally responded to the criticism he faced for allegedly not supporting his uncle.

Following Seun Kuti’s court appearance on Monday, where he was arraigned, many Nigerians took to Made Kuti’s social media page to accuse him of not being present during his uncle’s court proceedings.

In an effort to prove his critics wrong, Made Kuti shared a photo of himself and his father, Femi Kuti, inside the court premises. He expressed his discontent with the expectation of having to showcase his actions on social media to validate his support.

Made Kuti cautioned those who were quick to judge and advised them to acknowledge that life extends beyond what is visible on their mobile phones. He shared his thoughts by saying,

“At court yesterday, I don’t like that we have to post things on social media to show/prove we’re doing everything we can as a family. But here you go. Because of this, many are cursing at us under my father’s last post, swearing at us for doing nothing. We just accept there’s much more to life than what we see on our phones.”
