FELABRATION: Suspects arrested as fight breaks out at Fela’s Afrika Shrine

Suspects fighting at Afrika Shrine

It was gathered that the clash occurred following a heated disagreement between two groups following this year’s edition of Felabration which saw thousands of Nigerians gather to celebrate the music legacies of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

The fight was quelled by officers of the Rapid Response Squad who stationed patrol teams in the area to forestall a repeat. Some suspects were also arrested by the police.

Felabration, now in its 20th year, was initiated by Yeni Kuti, Fela’s first child and her brother Femi, as a platform to celebrate their father’s legacy.
