Embattled Afrobeats singer and late Fela’s son, Seun Kuti has broken his silence following his release on bail from prison.
However, Seun Kuti was granted bail and freed from jail by the Lagos State police command yesterday in the wee hours.
Confirming his release, the lawyer Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika told journalists.
“Yes, Ṣeun Kuti was released minutes ago. His bail conditions had been perfected since last Thursday, but the police asked for an extension to remand him in their custody until today (Tuesday), to conclude an investigation.”
A few hours after being freed, Suen Kuti took to his Instagram page to express his gratitude to his defense attorney, his family, and loved ones who supported him and helped make his release possible.
He wrote;
“I want to say a profound thanks to everyone who showed me all this love. All my friends that showed up!
