some how i consider myself one of those felasopher... and previlege growing up in the eighties around felas environment.... not only have i enjoyed what i call the fela kuti phenomenon......his music...stage performance and his views... but i have come to appreciate his ideas and ideals what he stand for not only as a musician but also as a person. some how fela have influenced some of my perceptions of life..... fela was more like a prophet who have insight into the future....no doubt decades after ......his prophecies are coming to pass...staring us in the face..democracy...demostration of craze...authority stealing as it is happening all over africa and other third world countries today...long live ABAMI EDA
