The rapper said that even though what the son of Afrobeat legend did was wrong, assaults of such kind was usually perpetrated more by uniformed men.
Falz then urged the police to do right and address the rot in its system with the speed used to arrest and persecute Seun kuti.
He wrote: “Nobody can deny that it is wrong to hit a policeman. For mischief seekers, read that first sentence again. However, these other videos are from the other side of the spectrum.
