Keep up the good work Agbaletu, he certainly needs help and with the present Nigeria situation, no one is there to help. I really enjoyed his gitter and I will put little token into his account and I am sure many people will also be moved with his situation. Merry Xmas to everyone and a prosperous new year in advance.
Good to see Ogbeni Lankua looking so much fresher and alive than he was the last time you interviewed him. Money good for sure. Well done for what you do for these people; even when they've not accepted personal responsibilities for the mistakes they made in the past which ultimately got them to where they find themselves now. Lankua's evasive abdication of such responsibility to God and to destiny is a classic example of that. Well done for challenging him repeatedly on that; even though he still didn't take ownership. I hope him and others like him show you more appreciation than they've shown me. I can't but question why Lankua who is still relatively young and agile can't monetise his guitar skills; either by making guest guitar appearances with some of the many Juju bands around; and / or run paid for guitar lesson classes for aspiring guitarists. This is the trade he knows. It is ridiculous that he couldn't move his base to Ishagamu to go and join up with Labi Obey. What is keeping him in Ibadan???? As can be evidenced, he has not made a success of the non guitar related ventures he had undertaken to date. I.e. Okada transportation, phone charging with generator etc.
This baba is a legend.... Some of the decisions he took were not the best and affected his life . I pray he gets a second chance. He still has a lot to offer in the music industry.
From observation baba must have joined after Segun Awe (not forgetting baba Aluko understudy him) left the band finally in 1978,because Baba Paul Tao mentioned in his interview he joined the band in December 1980. Baba Obey was trying different hands at the said time. Life is a lesson.
Sadly the baba was not patient, he is very skillful, but bad decisions brought him this low, someone like him shouldn’t be where he his today with his talent. Another thing is also that he he wasn’t patient. Patience is key. Being straight is also key. He wasn’t clear in decision making and wasn’t doesn’t communicate well with his bosses. Big lesson. Great job Agbaletu
Agbalętu, from the look of things from the story of his life, it's obvious that this guest is certainly troubled by undue spiritual perception that overwhelmed his logical thinking, which is the number one encounter with most Nigerians. He seems lost, and as a result, he will need proper help (education) to bring his mind back from wishful-thinking world. Otherwise, what is troubling him within that always makes him to leave certainty for uncertainty will continue to grow in him. He has gone through a lot of unnecessary self-imposed problems, and I really pity him!
@@TunjiOkunlola But Eja gigbe soro kaa!!!! He mentioned many things in the interview which re-affirms my personal experience of him. The character flaws are stark, such as his acts of disappearing to toilets.
Baba is good with the raw practical skills but lacks the theoretical touch, he plays the guitar using Hawaiian playing approach. He would have been a renowned guitarist if he had hanged on with one musician.
It's abdication of personal responsibility. Accepting responsibility is a heavy burden which some people find convenient to avoid; forgetting that it is a necessary part of the journey of success.

The man is good, God keep you sir.
Very sad. If he had stayed with Obey, he too would have travelled abroad. He made lots of bad decisions. Bless his heart.
You took the words from my mouth. Sadly, bad decisions usually emanate from character flaws; which are very evident here.

Very good question agbaletu, baba o fi ara bale rara also is not loyal to his band leader.
God bless Agbaletu!!
Good voice
Band boys are like football players then, then be asewo their eyes no dey stay one place.

Big lesson. Great job Agbaletu
This story reveals a self-inflicted misfortune. The baba keeps making unreasonable moves that led to his unfortunate condition.
Him alone played for more than 6 bands.
Efin ni Iwa!!!!! He is a man that doesn't have stickability. He can't and won't do anything for long and won't accept personal responsibility.

Absolutely, you are very accurate. He is complacent and will need some re- orientation

Please encourage Baba to start a guitar class
Or even start going to churches to train their choir members, many parent now wants their children to learn music.
Baba is good with the raw practical skills but lacks the theoretical touch, he plays the guitar using Hawaiian playing approach. He would have been a renowned guitarist if he had hanged on with one musician.
This baba mist deal his "unidenified personal" alujonnu that has been implicitly limiting him.
His ardent beliefs in àkọsílẹ̀ are parts of what limited his life journeys.
It's abdication of personal responsibility. Accepting responsibility is a heavy burden which some people find convenient to avoid; forgetting that it is a necessary part of the journey of success.
He's not a perfect narrator. He'd take most of his narratives midway and jump to another...
Evasive people are like that. He reminds me so much of Ogbeni Jelili Lawal who was similar in his own interview.
