Speaking during an interview on Ada’s Room, Seun argued that even his late father, Fela Kuti, benefited from being born to renowned activist Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti.

 

“You will see people online calling me a nepo baby, but even Fela Kuti, if he wasn’t Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti’s son, he wouldn’t have been Fela. Nothing comes from nothing,” he said.
