‘I don’t believe prayer works’, Seun Kuti declares

Seun Kuti, Afrobeat musician and son to Afrobeats legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti has declared that he does not believe in prayer.

While speaking in a video, Seun explained his reasons for his mindset, stating that the acts of kneeling and rolling in worships all looks performative to him.

Seun also stated that he believes spirituality is more of a personal journey rather than an outward expression, revealing that he has never prayed before in his life.

“I have never prayed before in my life, I don’t believe it works. All this eye service wey Una dey do, wey Una go go kneel down for ground, dey roll for ground, dey shout, they’re all childishness. Your life is the prayer. What you do with your life is the prayer,” he stated.
