Reacting to the criticisms in a video, Seun Kuti, pointed out that he didn’t have to make a post to mourn the boy. He said since he has never posted Davido’s success on his page, the demise of his son shouldn’t be the first thing he would post. He said he would rather pay Davido a visit to commiserate with him.

Also, he said he never asked anyone not to mourn Ifeanyi but people should stop telling others how to mourn. He stressed that he doesn’t mourn people in public, adding that it is not his style.
