Seun Kuti Claims Africans Taught Europeans How to Bathe, sparking Debate

Seun Kuti, a well-known Afrobeat musician, recently stirred controversy by claiming that Africans taught Europeans the importance of daily bathing.

Speaking on a podcast, Kuti pointed out that Queen Elizabeth I reportedly bathed only once a month, which influenced her subjects to neglect regular bathing. He emphasized that bathhouses originated in Africa and lamented that many Africans are unaware of their ancestors’ contributions to hygiene.

Kuti encouraged listeners to delve into European history, which he said would reveal that Africans introduced the British to regular bathing, a practice previously unknown to them.
Seun Kuti’s comments shed light on the cultural exchange between Africa and Europe, highlighting the significant impact of African traditions on European customs and underscoring Africa’s rich heritage.
