Seun Kuti, son of legendary Afrobeat Singer, Fela Kuti, has sought the services of legal luminary and Human Rights Lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN. Falana to defend him following his assault on a police officer.
Falana, confirmed the development to Punch on Sunday as he noted that the singer has enough evidence to defend himself.
His words, “I am his lawyer and he has briefed me. He certainly has evidence. This is not the first time he is dealing with the police.”
There were speculations that a team of police drafted to effect Kuti’s arrest could not locate him upon getting to his residence.
Efforts to, however, confirm the development from the police authorities proved abortive, as the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, could not be reached by phone.
Falana while reacting to this disclosed that the embattled singer would turn himself in on Monday.
“He is going to report himself to the police tomorrow morning. There is no problem at all,” he told.
