@bob45440 universal sufferage that is women being allowed to vote in the uk only came about because women protested , and died for this right..
how una dey?
check out dis blog: YOU DEY THINK AM?
It is very cool.
do you all know that women only started working in the 3rd world country after the 2nd world war because of lack of men and abundant of work to be done,so its not only africans that have that sex discrimination problem as you make it sound.
Fela best recording.

excelente fela kuti muy buena musica….
@SuperQueenofAfrica …Indeed she was, and I believe she was still alive when d song “lady” was released. Wouldn’t you love to have been d proverbial fly on d wall, listening to Fela and this ardent feminist as u rightly called her, over d meaning of the song.
I’m quite sure she gave him some flack over that…
@TheRide4pac …so u do agree in d equality of d sexes, ok, but 4 u to say that “God, nature has levied man with more responsibilities”, is mere conjecture on ur part, imo.
May the peace of God, NATURE,lol be with you.
@emecca123 I would agree with you on the basis of equality. After all, if we look at the basics, we actually breath the same air, fell the same pain (excluding labor pains) and several others… But there’s still a difference. Nature, God or whatever you choose to call it has ‘levied’ man with more responsibilities. The result is that it tends to slightly elevate man above woman. The same applies to animals (on land and in water) if you observe. This situation is not man made, its nature or God.
@MsBonita2020 fela had a cult following all over the world especially with white fans who followed him to the shrine in lagos where he performed in the seventies and eighties.. long before he became more popular and had a world wide following he had his hard core supporters.. i grew up listening to fela he is part of our culture but his music and lyrics are admired all over the world..
fela’s mother was an ardent feminist .. true story .. the first lagosian to wear trousers. thats “pants” to the yanks …
@oneshot2g I agree with u with regards to what d song is saying, but I disagree with d sub-text; that African women r traditionally & culturally NOT equal to their men. Now, tell me do u equally reject that sub-text?.
There has to b an evolution of thought process amongst civilized beings, even where traditions, culture, and 4 that matter religion r concerned. Some can b… well, antiquated.
@emecca123 i think we are seeing this from two different view points, IMO the song has more to do with africans forgoing tradition for european ideals, the idea that feminism and equal rights didn’t exist in “precolonial” africa, americas or asia is a lie
@oneshot2g Indeed it is cultural and traditional, one that is not limited to Africa. D feminist movement was a direct challenge to that notion of inequality of d sexes. D Europeans hv all but gotten rid of that notion, sadly women from d “3rd” world r still bound by that antiquated culture and tradition.
I dare say if Fela were alive today, and d question was posed to him; r men and women equal?, he would hv replied in d affirmative.
@TheRide4pac Oh come now, so just b’cos man has , 4 d most part made decisions that have shaped d world u put him high and mighty over d woman?. I’m glad u said “good or bad”, ‘cos quite frankly look at the state of d world…, it’s not good, with ur “mighty men” at the helm.
Besides, u want a list of women that have made decisions with lasting impact on d world stage: Golda Meir;
Indira Ghandi; Margareth Thacher; Angela Merkle; Hillary Clinton…
Ur woman may not b ur equal, mine is to me.
@emecca123 you do have to appreciate the cultural aspect, it is more seen as a departure from the traditions and acceptance of european doctrine. to say it comes down to submission is unfair, but rather it is a rejection by the african woman of her culture. fela had great respect for his mother and you statement totally ignores that
@emecca123 I don’t know what you smoked before writing that comment. But Society, history and religion has placed the woman as ‘complementary to the man’ not equal to him. Look at history, look at decisions that shaped the world (good or bad) and tell me who had been at the helm of affairs?

@beautifulgooal U hv 2 enlighten me some, all those ills u so eloquently enumerated r as a result of……,
and speaking of divine intervention, did manna actually fall heaven?.God has given us solution 2 all our problems, it’s up 2 us 2 apply them.If we r waiting 4 God 2 physically intervene… I suppose that will signal d end-time. D pilgrims came looking 4 a place where they r free 2 believe or NOT believe in a God, and to espouse any political view that they harbour.
@emecca123 Then the kids struggle, some become homosexual, some do not know how to be a good father or mother, some go about thinking the world owes them something. Then the result is lots of social vices, men wanting to be women, women wanting to be men. New generations are not able to carry on the lagacy of the previous. Hard wowork takes a back seat. We have to pray that God will intervene. The politicians have abondone God, the reason why the pilgrims came here in the first place
SUPERBE FELA
