Prison better than being in same house with politicians – Seun Kuti

Popular Afrobeats singer, Seun Kuti, has recounted his unpleasant experience in police custody.

Recall that the son of afrobeats legend, Fela Kuti was arrested for assaulting a police officer and consequently remanded in prison for days before his eventual release.

The Grammy nominated musician regained his freedom on Tuesday night, May 23.

Taking to his Instagram moments ago, Kuti shared his ordeal in jail. The activist said he was made to lay down on a hard cold floor with other prisoners.

However, the controversial singer added that it was better than fraternizing with politicians in the ‘Devils house’. Seun wrote;

“Dem put me for hard cold floor, in the midst of prisoners, still better than sitting in the devil’s house with politicians.”

The singer has flown out to Switzerland, which is where he will be starting his European music tour.
