Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti, has lambasted the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi for referring to Jesus as his father.
It would be recalled that Oba Ogunwusi had said: “Jesus is my father” at a church service earlier this year.
Seun in an interview with an International Television said: “ What happened to respecting the throne?”
“ This a shame to the monarch and the Yoruba race.
“ It is an embarrassment to a throne that is older than him.
“ That is older than his lineage and even anything he knows.
The son of the legendary singer, Fela Kuti further said that a king who has performed ritual rites has no right to refer to Jesus as his father . He said, ”Yes, he is the king of all religion. His duty is to protect the citizens and respect their rites to free religion than pander to one religion by going to worship with them.
”Imagine the Queen of England making a statement that, “The pope is her father"
