Femi Kuti Urges Nigerian Youths to Stay and Improve Their Country

 

Renowned singer Femi Kuti has called on young Nigerians to abandon plans to emigrate and instead work towards building a better Nigeria.

 

Speaking at the 2024 Felebration festival, Kuti emphasized that developed countries achieved greatness through struggles and civil wars, not by fleeing.

 

“Don’t Run, Fight for a Better Nigeria” 

Kuti stressed that Nigeria’s youths have a responsibility to improve their own country, citing iconic landmarks like the Fela Shrine, built in Africa, not abroad.

 

Key Highlights:

  •  Europe and America’s greatness came from struggles and civil wars
  •  Nigerian youths must recognize their role in improving their country
  •  Dual citizenship holders can still contribute to Nigeria’s growth
  • Femi Kuti’s son, Made Kuti, exemplifies contributing to Nigeria despite holding dual citizenship

 

“Japa” (Emigration) Not the Solution

 

Kuti’s message is clear: instead of seeking greener pastures abroad, young Nigerians should stay and fight for a better Nigeria.
