Femi is 58 now and his own eldest son, Made (pronounced “Mah-day”), is 25. Made had heard the stories but seeing Fela!, the 2008 Broadway musical, along with the documentaries that have since immortalised Fela’s life, was something else. “I knew how brutal the raids were, but to visualise them is very different,” he explains, “it really impacted me.” He says that the injustice gave him purpose as a musician, to be “righteous” just like his forefathers. “It’s one of the things that drives me,” he adds. “I don’t think I can forgive those past events.” And don’t get Femi started on Fela’s former drummer, whom he accuses of lying about composing Fela’s drum parts. “Tony Allen never said he wrote Fela’s drum patterns when Fela was alive,” says Femi. “Never uttered those words. Why are you fabricating the truth when the man is not alive to defend himself?” Allen died last year and is not around to defend himself either, but Femi remains resolute. “Fela dies and they start that rumour,” he continues. “That’s… that’s…evil! Yes, Tony Allen did a great job, but he’s paid to do that, as I did when I joined him. If Fela gave me a part, it was my duty to play it as best as possible or get the hell out of the band.” Femi struggled to find his own musical identity at first. He’d played in his father’s Egypt 80 band since his teens and ended up standing in for Fela in 1984 at a show in Los Angeles, when Fela was detained at Lagos airport and jailed for 20 months on bogus charges of currency smuggling. Much to his dad’s anger, Femi resigned once Fela returned from jail, to start his own band, Positive Force. They reconciled in 1990, and Femi says he isn’t resentful, he sees the bigger picture. “[Fela] had this battle with the government, they kept beating him. He came out stronger, he came out fighting. His courage, his bravery, the pain he went through – after all that, I could forgive my personal grievances with him.”

Fold the paper in half from top to bottom. Unfold it, then fold it in half again — this time from left to right. Start by folding your square sheet in half diagonally. Do this on both sides, so you’ll end up with an X at the center. Pinch the center together. Big Mouth Koopa • Bully Koopa • Cheatsy Koopa • Hip Koopa • Hop Koopa • King Bowser Koopa • Kooky von Koopa • Kootie Pie Koopa Made finds his grandfather’s mistreatment of his father harder to forgive, but adds: “He didn’t have love, I don’t think. My father would have tried to give him love. He wouldn’t have known how to receive it, because everyone around him was only ever used to collecting from him.”Now you have your own cootie catcher! A simple, cute idea such as this will only take a total time of a few minutes.

There are unanswered questions, but they have helped Femi to do things differently when it comes to his children. “I understood my father, I understood his fight, but I never understood why he put everybody before his family,” he says. “I know what it means to share your father. I know what is to be rejected. So the minute I started my family, I gave them the best.” For the filling, mix the chocolate spread with the chopped roasted hazelnuts. Add half the mixture to the cookie dough in the tin. Add the cubed wafer biscuits, then the rest of the chocolate spread mix. Level the top. A cootie catcher template can guide you when it comes to where to fold and the right number of times. There are lots of free cootie catcher templates you can find on the internet depending on how you want to design it or the kind of cootie catcher game you want to play. Here are a few examples:When Mario says, "How come we don't get this kind of applause when we do good plumbing?", Luigi's sideburn is painted green when he turns his head to face him. Lightly grease a 20cm/8in round deep loose-bottomed cake tin or tart tin and line the base with baking paper. Luigi refers his and Mario's tuxedos as "penguin suits". Penguin Suits would later debut 19 years later in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. During the concert, some of the audience members' clothes flash, such as one lady's pants going from dark-green to light-green, but that could be due to stage lighting. Roll out the remaining cookie dough to cover the pie. With a little water on your finger, dampen the top edge of the cookie dough, put the top on the pie and pinch the edges to seal. Cut off any excess. Put the pie in the freezer for 1 hour.
