Seun Kuti, the youngest son of late afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, has said that the Police have threatened to close down the New Afrika Shrine located in the Ikeja area of Lagos State.

Kuti disclosed this in a post on his Instagram handle on Monday.

According to the Nigerian musician, plans had been underway to hold the event tagged Mass Meeting #EndSARS Movement, Lessons and Tasks, today.
