It was a mix of thrills and glamour last night and early this morning as the week-long celebration of the late Afrobeat Legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and the Jamaica idol, Bob Marley, finally ended with international acts from Jamaica, Benin Republic, United States of America and Nigeria thrilling fans to different genres of music at the New Afrika Shrine in Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria.
The scion of the music legend, Femi Kuti, used the show tagged Felabration as an avenue to thank sponsors, fans and artistes that performed throughout the grand show.
“May I appreciate all the artistes who showed love, the different sponsors and most especially, the audience,” he said, adding that without the audience, Felabration 2013 would have been a failure.

“Felabration is not about Fela, Femi or Seun. Felabration is about world peace, about ending poverty, giving qualitative education to Nigerians, enhancing our health sector, having a leadership that is accountable to the electorate amongst other things that need to be corrected.
“Felabration is about emacipating ourselves from mental slavery,” he said.
