Yeni and Femi Kuti, children of the late Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, have published their late mother, Remilekun Anikulapo-Kuti’s memoir titled ‘Mrs Kuti’.
The memoir explores the turbulent years of their mother’s life with Fela, documenting personal and shared struggles as they journeyed through fame.
The older sibling, Yeni, shared the news on her Instagram page on Monday when she posted a video of Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka holding a copy of the book. She also announced that the book could be preordered.
An excerpt from the description partly read, ‘‘The memoir is an account of my life from the day I was born before I met Fela, and after he entered it like a comet in 1959. I think of him and will, as long as I live—my love is the forever kind.
‘‘Without regret or rancour, Remilekun Anikulapo-Kuti invites us into her extraordinary life as a love interest, the wife and the estranged partner of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, the Afrobeat legend.
“Her writing takes us from years in a home for orphaned children in the English Midlands to London, where she met the dashing Fela at a party, to moving to Nigeria, where Remilekun navigates culture shock, the complexities of love and loss, and the joys of motherhood.
“Remilekun is unabatingly honest about her thoughts on marriage, justice, music, and Nigerian society from the 1960s to the 1990s.’’
