Son of Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, Seun Kuti who has a daughter with one of his female dancers has said he does not believe in the institution called marriage. Wondering why?
Read his reason below:
“I am not married now because I don’t believe in marriage as an institution but I am even more tired of those that use it to destroy the mentality of their own children. Children are strong and very fragile at the same time and they get their security from the type of relationship and foundations you establish with them”
“Before you divorce yourselves over every dumb little thing, can you please think about the effect on your child? Remove your selfish clothes and put on the garment of empathy. It really breaks the little ones and if I am ever in a position to decide legislation, it will be law that as long as a child has been brought into this world in a married institution; the said couple have to be married till the child is 18! “I think people will then realize that children are more important than your ego! Love your kids people,” he said.
Not a bad reason I must say. Thinking of the kids before taking such a huge step is pretty important.
