In a recent interview with Punch, Afrobeats singer, Seun Kuti has revealed why he can never get married and even though he has a daughter with his baby mama, he says he does not plan to marry her.
Read Excerpts form his interview:
Did you actually mean it when you said you weren’t going to get married even to the mother of your child?
I don’t believe in marriage. If I had wanted to be married, I would have been working towards it. People can decide what they want to do with their lives. I just don’t believe in that institution especially as it is set up today
How do you mean?
I don’t like the idea of ‘ownership.’ Nobody has the right to own anybody. This is a capitalist idea so that people can make profit off love. You don’t make profit off love.
What if the mother of your child decides to get married to someone else?
She is free. If she wants to be married, then that is her choice. What will I do about it? Will I put a gun to her head and insist that she should not get married? But I know she will not do that because we have a strong bond and we understand each other and our partnership is great. We are raising a beautiful daughter and it would be a big surprise if she says she wants to get married to someone else.
