Seun Kuti, a well-known Afrobeat singer, has criticised those who are blaming the father of the late musician Mohbad for burying him quickly.
Mohbad passed away on September 12, and surprisingly, he was buried the very next day, September 13, 2023.
Many of his fans were unhappy with this quick burial and criticised Mohbad’s father for not making proper arrangements or investigations.

Seun Kuti interview
In an interview with Nedu’s Thehonestbunch podcast, Seun Kuti explained that poverty is a big factor in this situation. He argued that people only condemn Mohbad’s father because he isn’t wealthy.
Kuti asked why there’s such a fuss when a poor person like Mohbad’s father buries his son promptly, whereas if a wealthy person like Otedola were to do the same, nobody would question it.
He also pointed out that instead of consoling the grieving father, people unfairly accuse him of being responsible for his son’s death.
