SEUN KUTI SMOKES MARIJUANA!

Q. Do you smoke?
S. Yes I smoke but I don't know if it has any good or bad effect.


Q. It is obvious you inherited smoking Marijuana from Fela. What is your attitude towards it?
S. I don't call it Marijuana. I call it 'Igbo' and my attitude towards it is that I get high. All I feel is that everybody has to start smoking 'Igbo' so that they will start reasoning well. I just don't know why Nigerians are pretending. Most people will get high in the corner of their house and then will later come out and say it is a bad habit. I know of a pastor who comes to Kalakuta to smoke before going to the alter to preach.


At only 24, son of late Afro-Beat legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Seun is smoking Marijuana and boasting about it. He even thinks we all need to smoke Marijuana to reason well. He either needs his blood pressure checked or his head examined.


Can anyone explain the need to smoke and get high? And when they say high, what do they mean? And does drugs really make people high? I'm sure there is someone out there who can explain this to me. I'd really like to know.
