  “Not all Kutis use narcotics” — Afrobeat singer Made Kuti addresses family misconception Afrobeat singer, Made Kuti, has dismissed the misconception that all members of the Kuti family use narcotics.  Speaking with TheCable on the sidelines of the United States mission’s 250th Independence Day celebration in Lagos, the singer said many people wrongly assume he and his relatives use drugs. “A lot of people think I smoke, but I don’t, and even my dad has quit. So, there is a big misconception that the family are all into narcotics, but most of us are not,” he said. When asked to describe himself in three words, Made chose “hardworking, loyal and passionate,” adding with a joke that “loyal” fits because “I’m a married man”. When asked which Nigerian artiste he currently listens to, Made named his grandfather.

 Mexico’s president condemns deaths of three nationals in US immigration custody

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum on Friday strongly condemned the deaths of three Mexican nationals who died while in the custody of U.S. immigration authorities this year. Sheinbaum expressed disbelief that such incidents are still occurring, highlighting the death of a 19-year-old at a Florida detention center on Monday, along with two other cases earlier this year. “The report says the young man killed himself,” Sheinbaum said. “Nonetheless, we want a full investigation.”

The 19-year-old, Royer Perez Jimenez, had been arrested in January on charges including fraud for impersonation and misdemeanor resisting an officer. He was found in his cell at the Glades County Detention Center in Florida at 2:34 a.m. on March 16. Staff immediately attempted life-saving measures, but his death is currently classified as a “presumed suicide” pending investigation. Earlier this year, other Mexican nationals, including 34-year-old Heber Sanchez Domínguez and a 48-year-old man in March, also died in ICE custody. The Mexican government called the deaths “unacceptable” and pledged to use all available legal and diplomatic measures to defend the rights of its citizens abroad. Officials noted that at least 30 migrants died in U.S. detention centers last year—the highest since 2004—and at least 12 have died so far this year, amid heightened deportation efforts and ICE operations under the Trump administration.
