       Ikoyi Blindness
Fela returns to the previous albumâ€™s focus on Mushin, this time
specifically contrasting the neighbourhood to its richer counterpart, Ikoyi.
Ghariokwu Lemiâ€™s front-cover portrait of a blindfolded Ikoyi man (blind
to social injustice) is complemented by a rear-cover strip cartoon showing a
young Mushin resident standing up to a uniformed abuser and demanding lawful
treatment. The narrative is continued on â€œGba Mi Leti Ki Nâ€™Dolowo
(Slap Me Make I Get Money).â€ In Lagos, there had been a recent upsurge in
the police and army assaulting people in the street and then shaking them down
for money â€“ and they were getting away with it. Fela demands that the
courts uphold the law equally for rich and poor, for uniformed servants of the
state and ordinary citizens. Originally released by Africa Music.
