Seun Kuti, the Nigerian singer, revealed that he personally funded the renovation of the Panti cell, which included improvements to the toilet, floor, wall, and shower. His intention was to provide a better environment for individuals like Naira Marley and others who might find themselves there in the future. In a recent video, Seun Kuti detailed the changes he made to the Panti cell after his release.
Seun Kuti’s arrest stemmed from an incident in which he was captured slapping a police officer. Reflecting on his actions after leaving prison, he stated, “There are some things I did that I didn’t publicly announce, but I believe it’s important to share them now. It could be anyone in that situation tomorrow. When I was released from the Panti cell, do you know the first thing I did when I got home?”
“Some things I did that I didn’t announce, but it’s important for me to talk about them here. It could be you tomorrow. When I left the Panti cell, do you know the first thing I did when I got home? I gave my people money to renovate that cell, to change the toilet, shower, and paint the walls. I paid for it out of my pocket because I realized I could end up back there tomorrow. At least, Naira (Naira Marley) can enjoy my charity there.”
He mentioned Naira Marley in connection to the ongoing detention of the Nigerian singer related to the assault of Mohbad. This revelation prompted numerous individuals to express their opinions in the comments section of the post.
