The 85-year-old highlife music icon who had his career revived at a point when it seemed all hope was lost, is reported to have passed away today June 12, 2013 at Ahmadiyya hospital located in the Igbado-Iyaiye environ of Lagos.
He was admitted into the local hospital weeks ago, although he came out last week to say he’s back on his feet and warming up to perform again.
A few popular names in the Nigerian showbiz industry are already mourning, with many OAPs, musicians, actors and journalists sending out condolences on different platforms.
