When I die cremate my body, Femi Kuti says

Popular Afrobeat singer Femi Kuti says he prefers his body cremated when he dies.

He spoke during his performance at the New Africa Shrine.

According to the 59-year-old, there will not be any need to organise a loud burial when he dies, but a simple cremation and a close-knit burial ceremony.

“When I die, please cremate me, burn my body. It is the most hygienic way. Have you all thought about Ikoyi cemetery, this Lagos has been in existence for let’s just say 60 years and people die, if they don’t die today, they will die tomorrow and that burial ground has never been full and if you check it, it is not like it’s 1 million acres since I was little when we used to bury people there,” he said.

Femi is the first son of late Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
