Fela Kuti honoured in Lagos: Fifteen years after his death, the magical sound of Fela Kuti’s Afrobeat music is still heard in Lagos, Nigeria’s key port and most populous city. As his Kalakuta commune is turned into a heritage site, family and friends of Africa’s most famous musical son talk about what made Kuti and his music so special, and how his legacy lives on today.
