Seun Kuti Addresses Claims of Angrily Walking Out of Peller’s Wedding

Seun Kuti has finally set the record straight after his early departure from Peller and Jarvis’ traditional wedding ceremony sparked a wave of online speculation.

The TikTok couple tied the knot over the weekend, with Seun among the guests in attendance.

A clip that circulated shortly after showed the son of the late Afrobeat icon Fela Kuti leaving the event before it wrapped up, prompting reports that he was furious after an MC allegedly made a comment suggesting Wizkid is bigger than Fela. In the footage, Seun could be heard remarking that he was “in the wrong place.”

Speaking during a session with Fuji singer Malaika, Seun dismissed the narrative that had taken hold online.
He explained that he simply left the wedding to head to the Shrine, the iconic Lagos venue that serves as a monument to his father’s legacy, and that bloggers ran with a distorted version of events.
