#BBB NEWS| HighlitesWithIK (HWIK): Featuring Yeni Kuti On The Felabration Edition

A lot of things come to mind when we hear the name 'Fela Anikulapo Kuti'. Many see him as the godfather of afro beat, a human right activist (which he is) and some see him as the crazy man that wore under pants to perform on the stage.

In celebration of Fela's legacy, we have 'Felabration' (a yearly event), which will hold from the 12th - 18th of October. 'Felabration' is Yeni's (Fela's first child) brain child (an idea or invention which is considered to be a particular person's creation).

On this episode of highlites with ik, we get to sit with Fela's daughter Yeni Kuti or YK as she's fondly called and she talks about her dad like we've never heard of before now. She talks about growing up with the great Fela and the kind of father and man he really was.

Please find attached photos from the episode shoot which airs on Saturday 10th at 8:15pm. And for anyone who misses it, the repeat shows on Wednesday at 22:00CAT.
