Famous media personality, Omoyeni Anikulapo-Kuti popularly known as Yeni Kuti has explained why her brother, Grammy-nominated afrobeat musician, Femi Kuti ex-wife, Funke, left the singer, noting that the wife walked out of the marriage due to “communication breakdown”.
She made this disclosure while speaking with media personality, Chude Jideonwo.
Yeni Kuti who is also known as YK, said Funke, however, regretted her action as she later said if she had known what she knows now, she probably wouldn’t have divorced the singer.
She said, “I think [Femi and Funke’s divorce was a result of] a communication breakdown. Because Funke even now says if she had known then what she knows now, she probably wouldn’t have left the marriage. So, I think it was a communication breakdown.
“You know, you need to know our people, our people, we can be very devilish. If you see something that is good, it’s how you will bring it down that you will now focused on.
“So, a lot of people have been talking to her. It’s just like me, people are saying, ‘Why are you still dancing for your brother? Go and form your own band.’ Which band do I want to form? Did I ever come and meet you that I want to form a band?”
