Seun Kuti, Nigerian Afro-beat star  musician and son of the late legend Fela explained why he walked off the stage moments after clashing with security men attached to the venue of a London concert,saying the organisers had no right to deny his fans the opportunity to dance to his music.

“It was unthinkable and unfair for anyone to have asked my fans to sit down and not dance to my music. Afrobeat music is best enjoyed standing and it wasn’t fair to ask anyone to sit through while I played. It kills the spirit, Seun contended.

“The action of the security men and the organisers of the show prompted my walk out. I walked out, nobody walked me out.” he added

Last week, Showtime reported that a show heralded by Seun Kuti was disrupted after the organisers of the show and security men warned the audience against dancing at the event.

Angered by the decision, Seun whose order to the audience to continue dancing to his music was rebuffed walked off the stage in protest.

The event was the  last night of music showcase during the New world Nigeria event holding in Stratford London.

Due to late scheduling and no fault of his own, the renowned saxophonist who was the headline act got on stage an hour later than expected but was determined to fulfill his hour long set to his fans.
