310K views · 6.7K reactions | On August 12, 1997, Nigeria stood still. Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the Afrobeat legend, fearless activist, and voice of the oppressed was laid to rest in his Kalakuta home. Over a million people flooded the streets of Lagos to pay their last respects. It wasn’t just a burial; it was the farewell of a revolutionary. Fela may be gone, but his spirit lives on in the music, the message, and the movement. #history_daily | History_Daily | Facebook
