 Femi Kuti Talk Say, “Our System Dey Frustrate Talent”

Famous Afrobeat musician Femi Kuti , recently spoke about the big problem in Nigeria’s music touring industry. He said that many musicians find it hard to plan shows in different cities or even go abroad to perform.

FEMI KUTI ON TOURING ISSUES

 Why Nigeria Touring System Dey Fail?

There are many reasons why touring in Nigeria no dey work well. First, venues are few or not well-kept. Also, transport and equipment costs are very high.

Moreover, government policies are not helping. Visa issues and lack of funding make things worse. Finally, there are few good promoters to organize concerts properly.

Because of these problems, many artists stay in Lagos only, instead of performing in places like Port Harcourt, Jos, or even Accra.

 Afrobeats Dey Travel, But Our Artistes Dey Static

Even though Afrobeats is now a global sensation, many Nigerian artists depend on foreign promoters. These promoters often don’t understand how things work in Nigeria.

As a result, Nigeria misses out on the full benefits of this success. Cultural export should help our economy, but that cannot happen if the touring industry stays broken.

How Nigeria Fit Fix This Problem

There are ways to improve the situation. For example, Nigeria can build better venues in more cities. Also, training local promoters and event managers will help organize shows better.

Additionally, the government can create funds to support artists who want to tour. Finally, fixing visa and customs problems will make touring easier.

 Final Word: No Let Our Talent Waste

Femi Kuti’s words are a wake-up call. Nigeria needs to invest in its touring industry now. This way, our artists can perform locally and globally without stress.

If we don’t fix these problems, we will keep losing our shine to other countries.
