Obey, K1, 40 others to perform at Olubadan coronation

Evergreen musician, Chief Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi and Fuji artistes, K1, Wasiu Alabi Pasuma and Suleiman Alao Malaika and 37 other musicians have been billed to perform at the coronation ceremony of  the new Olubadan- designate, High Chief Saliu Adetunji.

The installation of Chief Adetunji as the 41st Olubadan is slated for Friday March 4, 2016 in the ancient city.

An impeccable palace source noted that the musicians cut across major Yoruba music genres such as Juju, Fuji, Apala and Highlife.

The source added that none of the artistes wants to miss the opportunity to perform for the new Olubadan, who is a major player in the music industry.

Adetunji is a music producer and promoter under some record labels including Omo Aje Sound Studio.

Owing to the huge number of the artistes, it was learnt that each of them may not have more than 15 minutes to perform throughout the coronation ceremony. But the musicians are likely to perform on Friday and Saturday when the new monarch is scheduled to entertain guests.
