Afrobeat musician and son of legendary Fela Kuti, Made Kuti, has spoken about his views on marriage proposals and how he approached his own.
The 30-year-old explained that when he proposed to his wife, Inedoye Onyenso, he did not kneel, as he believes marriage should be a mutual agreement between partners rather than one person appearing to “beg” the other.
He shared this during an episode of the Timeless Podcast, which aired on Nix Network’s YouTube channel.
“I did not go down on my knees when proposing to my wife because I told her it was a mutual decision. We are not begging each other to be with each other,” he said.
Made Kuti and Inedoye Onyenso tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony held in Lagos in November 2023.
He also revealed that Inedoye was once his “school daughter,” a term he used to describe their earlier connection.
In 2025, the singer also responded to critics who questioned his marriage to Inedoye, who is Igbo, over ethnic differences, describing such views as “ethnic bigotry” and calling it a “slave mentality.”

Speaking in a viral video, Carter Efe described the music industry as “very devilish,” while explaining that he initially believed making music was as simple as recording songs and enjoying public attention.
According to him:
“I ran away from music because the industry is very devilish. I thought once you drop a song, you can just go outside and dance to it.”
The entertainer further claimed that he later discovered issues surrounding revenue sharing and earnings from music distribution.
“Next thing, Spotify sent me a full letter saying I wouldn’t even be getting 10% from my song.”
His statement quickly triggered debates online, with many Nigerians questioning whether Spotify was truly responsible for the alleged revenue arrangement.
