{{Son of Afro-beat king, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, who died 15 years ago, Seun, has condemned the ban of marijuana and cigarette, adding that the position of the law on the two products was illogical.}}<\/p>\n
According to Seun, the favoured cigarette has lethal consequences, while the legally opposed marijuana was medicinal and good for human consumption. <\/p>\n
But, Seun said, the lethal cigarette was favored simply because it was to the white man\u2019s profit, stressing that marijuana would make black countries richer than the white if legalized.<\/p>\n
Seun damned black politicians for taking the white\u2019s advice against its own natural produce of \u2018weed\u2019 which he said was good after all and accepting the white\u2019s product which truncates lives.<\/p>\n
\u201cMarijuana is medical, and I feel Cigarette is selling legally because it is white man\u2019s business. It is killing millions of people every day. \u2018Igbo\u2019 is not killing anybody\u2026 Marijuana is not only for smoking. <\/p>\n
“It\u2019s used for a lot of things; you can make clothes, you can drink tea, it is good, it is medicinal, it helps your appetite, they give it to cancer patients.. a lot of benefits,\u201d he said in a tone of finality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
