Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has been attacked by Grammy-nominated afrobeat singer Seun Kuti.

He criticized Obasanjo over the letter he sent to the British court that convicted former Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu and his wife responsible for organ trafficking.

In a letter dated April 3 and addressed to The Chief Clerk, the Central Criminal Court, Old Bailey, London, the former president begged the UK court to balance justice with mercy regarding the conviction of former Deputy Senate President Senator Ike Ekweremadu and his wife, Beatrice.

Seun Kuti criticized the former head of state in response for not making a comparable gesture for young Nigerians imprisoned.

On Thursday, he talked during an Instagram live event.

“Obasanjo did not write [a] letter on behalf of the many young Nigerians in prison, even for nonviolent crimes,” the guy claimed. “Obasanjo wrote [a] letter for Ike Ekweremadu, who wanted to harvest another person’s organ and destroy another person’s life for his daughter.”
