Seun Kuti accused of pulling a gun at party-goers who parked cars in front of his house

Temitayo made the allegation in a thread she shared via her Twitter page on Sunday, December 13, 2020.

She wrote in a Twitter thread, “SEUN KUTI pulled out a gun over a street parking matter in Ikeja tonight, personally assaulted the car owners attending the party, used thugs to assault them and called them gluttons at a paid event…I saw it happen.

“It was abt 7pm when I decided to stroll out of the Lagos Facebook Hangout party held at 16, Akin Osinyemi Street, off Allen Ave, Ikeja. Outside the building where I stood, I couldn’t help but shift attention to the man in an armless top & slightly over the knee trouser, raging.

“He was mad that the party attendees littered the street where he obviously lives with their cars – a genuine concern (his gate was affected). There was a resident stranded in his car trying to access his compound but couldn’t.

“Kuti’s fury leaped & began to ridicule the guy who block the access. Whether the guy knew or not that it was Kuti, he screamed back, asking him to take things easy before he leaves.

“Next thing: Some three guys left Kuti’s side and rushed the guy with slaps and blows, while Kuti also landed him a heavy strike on his head amid screaming. This guy retreated, almost crying. He moved his car. But it wasn’t enough.

“Kuti continued to rage at other car owners until one of the organisers, MM, showed up. In the middle of the effort to pacify, one of the bouncers told Kuti to calm down… Next thing again, Kuti’s thugs rushed at the bouncer for such effontery. That’s where the party scattered.

“This time around Kuti went into his compound and brought out a SHORT BLACK GUN! He was attempting to cork it but paused again… I called my friend that we needed to leave immediately.

“I knew trouble was looming on a large scale when the guy who was earlier assaulted returned to the scene. Barely 30 minutes after we left, I got feedback from people at the party that there had been a gunshot, forcing everyone to scamper.

“I’m shocked that Kuti will rather make his point with a gun than engage the organisers…seeing him in the movie ‘Citation’ & how he found his voice during #EndSarsProtests reinforces the feeling that things aren’t what they seem. KUTI was a thug to behold.”

“My dad Wizkid is not the one begging for pussy” — Son

Latest entertainment gist

When it comes to savage responses, the Baloguns specifically those related to Wizkid by blood, are not to be trifled with and being Davido does not save you from such.

In a recent social media exchange, 13-year-old Boluwatife Balogun, the eldest son of renowned Nigerian artiste Wizkid, threw some savage response at his father’s rival, David Adeleke following their online spat.

Facing some online banter from a Davido fan, Boluwatife Balogun came to his father’s defense rather than keep mute.

The ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Davido escalated in recent days, with both artistes engaging in public spats and trading insults online. Davido, responding to Wizkid’s jibes, took aim at Wizkid’s physical stature, claiming that Wizkid is so short that he wears size 7 shoes and jokingly suggesting he shops at Footlocker Kids.

Some individuals on social media supported Davido’s claims by sharing photos purportedly showing Wizkid wearing shoes matching his son Bolu’s shoe size.

Davido further escalated the feud by disparaging Wizkid’s music, boasting about his own hits, and challenging Wizkid to release new music simultaneously. He also ridiculed Wizkid’s height, suggesting that despite his own short stature, Wizkid is even shorter.

A Davido fan, seizing the opportunity to taunt Wizkid’s family, commented on Boluwatife Balogun’s TikTok page, asking if it was true that both Bolu and his father wear the same shoe size.

Bolu promptly responded to the taunt, defending his father by highlighting Wizkid’s character and integrity, asserting that despite any jokes about shoe sizes, his father doesn’t stoop to begging for attention or engaging in inappropriate behavior.
