Motunrayo, daughter of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, has weighed in on the ongoing dispute between her brother Seun Kuti and singer Wizkid.
The tension erupted last week after Seun criticised Wizkid’s fanbase for making comparisons between the ‘Ojuelegba’ singer and their father, arguing that such parallels diminish Fela’s legendary legacy.
The disagreement intensified on Tuesday when Wizkid responded with a series of posts targeting Seun, filled with insults, and controversially declaring himself greater than Fela. Seun replied with a sarcastic retort aimed at Wizkid.
Speaking on the matter in a video posted to her Instagram page, Motunrayo expressed her frustration over what she described as “double standards” from the public and Wizkid’s fans.
Prompt News reports she also dismissed Wizkid’s father, saying the singer is greater than him, but not greater than Fela.

“Wizkid cannot tolerate people talking to his nobody of a father. He is pained that they insulted his father, but his own FC keeps downgrading our own father, and you all are telling us to keep quiet, insulting us,” she said.
Motunrayo added, “So you people cannot tolerate them disrespecting your fathers? You people are crazy and just embarrassing yourselves up and down. It is Muniru Olatunji that Wizkid is greater than not Fela. Most of you lack home training because if you do, you are supposed to understand where we are coming from but you do not.”
