'King Sunny Ade is not dead'

King of Juju Music, Chief Sunday Adeniyi Adegeye, a.k.a. Sunny Ade (KSA), is not dead, contrary to the rumour doing the rounds on Monday.


The rumour was debunked by one of the associates of the Juju maestro, Mr Clement Ige, saying “it is not true.”

Speaking on Monday, Ige said nothing was wrong with KSA, adding that “he is hale and hearty,” just as he noted that he was not aware of the source of the rumour that had widely spread.

“KSA was in Ibadan yesterday (Monday) and will also grace an appointment with the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona today (Tuesday).

“I urge people and the entire Nigerians not to panic and disregard the rumour. KSA is in good health and full of life,” he said.

Nigerian Tribune also gathered that the music icon had commenced preparation for his 70th birthday slated to hold later in the year.
