Photos of embattled Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti being paraded with other inmates at a Nigerian Police facility in Lagos State has set the social media on fire.
Kuti on Monday submitted himself to the Police after assaulting an officer on the Third Mainland Bridge on Saturday.
Seun’s action had stirred controversy on social media, with many Nigerians taking the position of the Judge.
While some stood firmly behind the singer, others rebuked him for assaulting an officer in uniform, an act they say his father, the late Fela Kuti, would never attempt.
Following his detention, the Police spokesman for Lagos State, Benjamin Hundeyin confirmed that Seun was at fault for the unfortunate incident.
