With just few months to the annual week-long celebration of the music, life and times of Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, the organising committee has unveiled pre-events to kick off the festivity. In its usual tradition, this year’s Felabration will open with its secondary school debate. About 10 schools will debate on the topic ‘Creation of State Police in Nigeria’. They include Ipakode Senior Grammar School, Ikorodu, Epe Girls Senior High School, Epe, Herbert Macaulay Senior Girls High School, Sabo Yaba, Ajara Senior Grammar School, Badagry and Ejigbo Senior High School, Ejigbo, Lagos.
Founded by Yeni Anikulapo-Kuti, the eldest daughter of Fela, Felabration School Debate was established not only to bring out the best in logical thought processes of the school-children, but also, to sensitise them on burning topical national issues.
