Vanguard News reports that Yeni Kuti, Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s eldest daughter, has intervened in the online clash between her brother Seun Kuti and Wizkid over Fela’s musical legacy. The feud has sparked days of heated commentary across Nigeria’s celebrity ecosystem.
The Nation is cited for Yeni’s call for calm and mutual respect across eras, while Daily Post Nigeria notes other celebrities have weighed in with conflicting views.
**Echotitbits take:** Yeni is protecting the Kuti brand. By publicly framing Wizkid as a friend, she is trying to prevent an “old guard vs new school” culture war that could make the Kuti estate appear hostile to modern Afrobeats. It is prudent crisis‑containment.
