Afrobeat singer and activist Seun Kuti has sparked conversations online after sharing his thoughts on why Africans should rethink their daily work patterns.
In a post that quickly went viral, Kuti compared the European lifestyle with that of Africa, suggesting that working during the hottest hours of the day is unsuitable for the continent’s climate.
“I understand why Europeans work during the day; it’s cold. In Africa, it’s hot; we should work in the evening like our ancestors or early morning,” he wrote.
The singer argued that adopting work schedules better aligned with Africa’s weather conditions would not only reduce stress but also improve productivity.
His statement has drawn mixed reactions across social media. Supporters praised the idea as culturally grounded and practical, while critics argued that modern economic systems and global trade make such a shift unrealistic.
Seun Kuti, known for his bold takes on governance, culture, and social issues, once again positioned himself at the center of a debate that touches on tradition, climate, and modernity in Africa.
