Following the country’s current state, the grammy award winner described Nigeria as ‘collateral damage’
Sharing his thoughts about how Nigeria came to be, he noted that the country was never meant to exist.
He said: “We were not even supposed to be Nigerians in the first place. We are the Royal Niger company. So, we are basically a company for the British to take resources and go for Britain.
“Then somewhere along the line, the company decided to buy the whole place and amalgamate it.
“So at the end of the day, the people that sell the place and the people that buy the place to them are the winners. While the rest of the people are collateral damage.”
