I Got Kicked Out Of School Because Of Fela Kuti-Andy Boyo
Andy Boyo, a renowned film director and patron of the Directors Guild of Nigeria (DGN), has revealed that he was kicked out of school because of the great Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
Fela, a Nigerian musician and political activist, died in Lagos, Nigeria, in 1997 at the age of 58.
Fela is regarded as the primary originator of Afrobeat, a Nigerian music genre that combines West African rhythms with American funk and jazz.
Boyo, on the other hand, is planning to bring the iconic life of the Afrobeats star to the big screen in a highly anticipated biographical film.
Boyo has secured the song rights after three years of planning and is set to begin filming in Nigeria, the United Kingdom, and the United States in 2025.
Rumours claim that the high-profile film will feature a large cast, including 27 actresses playing Fela’s wives.
Boyo, known for his hit films “Untamed” and “Spirit of Assassins,” will direct, write, and produce the biographical feature.
Boyo spoke about his affection for Fela and the project he is working on, saying, “This project is a labour of love.”
Boyo said: “Fela has always been my passion, I was expelled from Glorious College, Ibadan, for sneaking out to watch him perform at the University of Ibadan’s ‘Havana Night.’ Fela was my mentor; I admired his personality and music. When I returned to the school, I got expelled from school.”

The movie will tell the story of Fela’s existence, battles, and victories as the ruler of Afrobeats. Thanks to Boyo’s skill and commitment, this film is set to revolutionize the world of cinema, challenging the status quo of African film.
Once again, Nigerian singer Davido has made headlines for proving his status as a rich man with two luxury cars entering Nigeria: a Rolls-Royce and a Tesla Cybertruck.
The musician posted a picture of the trip on social media, his pure white Rolls Royce parked on the runway, ready for shipment.
Another photo depicted the Tesla Cybertruck being loaded into an aircraft to verify the truck’s arrival in Nigeria.
