Well done Agbaletu, as usual, this is a great piece! If possible, can you subtitle this episode and reload it because your listeners could not hear some of what baba Odeyemi is saying. More strength to you
Agbaletu! Great job! Elder Dayo Odeyemi was calmed and collected and still unquestionably remain a force to be reckoned with in Juju and Fuji that transcends cultural boundaries. Please invite him again to your show when his voice gets better. I wasn't able to understand him as much as I wanted. Keep up the good job!
Baale Dele Adeyanju, Elder Odeyemi is a good guest but his bad voice in this great interview negatively impacted on it. I support that you re-invite him when he is audible enough for our rapt attention.
Elder Dayo is still managing Dr sikiru ayinde barrister image very well even in death. he's been very careful to confirm some allegations against Ayinde barrister. awon ti won soju ti won tun se eyin niyen.God bless you sir
Timely interview. Elder was my egbon and senior colleague at the same time. He was tossed to Egbado by the Sketch mgmt when i knew him. His closeness to Barrister got him much beef from Sketch bosses who often accused him of abscoonding from his base to follow Barrister. Ayo Jamiu, a messenger on Sketch's subdesk took to Elder's template to be pushing stories for Wasiu, known as Talazo that time.
Agbaletu, well done. I always enjoy your interviews with superstars and appreciate the valuable insights we gain from them. However, I am not a fan of Barrister, Kolington, Sunny Ade, or Obey. If you listen carefully to what Mr. Odeyemi is saying, you will notice he does have a favorite musician, either KSA or Barrister, as most of his comments are based on these two. It is okay to have a favorite, but in interviews like this, it is important to remain unbiased and present information as it is. Regarding Barrister and Kolington, even the King of Fuji himself confirmed before his passing that he and Kolington had been friends since a young age. This is a story both Kollington and Barrister affirm, so presenting a different narrative is confusing. Similarly, while you praise Sunny Ade over Obey, remember that these two have commended each other as the best Juju musicians. What is the reason for this contradiction? Ultimately, it is up to the audience to decide what to believe.
Welldone Agbaletu Pls this baba resembles my benefactor at sketch then in 1993 when I was a freelance cartoonist during election which have been long to meet. Also, I am still looking for samples of those cartoons if possible Thank you
This dele is a very intelligent guy who knows how to draw words from someone. It's only baba tiamiyu who knows his gimmicks❤. Barrister was a great man🎉
Baba claimed that Barry and Kolly are not that close. But when reminiscing on what happened on Osupa King saga said Barry told Kolly " Kola are just knowing me today?....." ( think about it) . I opined that Origades version of the friendship is more balanced. Agbaletu is high time you relase Kollys interview unedited 2:15:26
" In 1964, I won Nnamdi Azikiwe's cup, and the news paper carried it that a 10 year old musician won Nnamdi Azikiwe's Cup." - Kollington on Ngbati TV. We can deduce from here that Kollington could be born in 1954, whereas Barrister was born in 1948. So they were not that close in age and hence in music. Barrister clearly said it that Raimi Ogidan was his contemporary, not Kollington.
@drhaastrup5145 what now made Barry sang" Olohun lo ran wa se a wa la gbe fuji.soke to fi lokiki o... Sikiru Ayinde, Kollignton Ayinla... Dauda Akanmu"
Baba is been economical with truth when it concerns Kollington. He was trying to rank and rate K1 and GKA, forgetting that in 1984 Talazo record Wasiu called himself...omo Kolawole Ayinla Kollington, omo Sikiru Ayinde Barrister...
He deliberately dodged some questions that ve a negative impact on barrister image, Barrister married the daughter of his friend Adisa pelle without the consent of his father , Baba himself confirmed it in his music and interview.
Barrister first record was in 1965 the same year Kolington ayinla won president azikwe competition cup on were music that proof Kolington ayinla can also wax record then maybe he doesn't have helper barrister knows how to buy his ways from beginning when Barry was dragging it with ogidan in mushin Killington Ayinla is very mush around in ebutemeta agbaletu go and find out
But I was nobody when I met Chief Ebenezer Obey in his church at Agege area soliciting his sponsorship of our students fellowship in the 90s. Though he didn't give us anything but he welcomed us warmly. I remember that he told us that he had handful of the similar requests we came for but assuring us another time.
Agbaletu, you are doing a good job with your guests and the programme s a whole. however, this Baba Odeyemi is an apologist of Sikiru Ayinde Barrister. His submission on Gen. Kollington Ayinla was biased and gave him out on several occasions and gave him out as someone who has a beef against the General! If not, how would he described say Kollington and KWAM 1 started almost the same time and he also made attempts to belittled the relationship between Alhaji Agba and Kebe Nkwara! My submission
Adisa Pele Ni Barrister pregnated the daughter nd married her *They were 5and6,since the days of playing football in Ansaruden School, Ayantuga Mushin,there is also Taofeek, a very good football, then, even Late Mudashiru soccer ,ambassador, was of that generation
Most of what Baba Dayo Odeyemi said is true but the issue of Barrister music "Owo ki lani o, ti enikan o ti ni ri " it's not true that Barrister sang it against Chief M.k.o Abiola, totally not true, Barrister copied that music from Baba S. Aka and also it's a big fallacy that Chief M.k.o Abiola met Dr. Sikiru Ayinde barrister at the world bank. Baba Dayo Odeyemi, may you live long with sound health and abundant blessings by God grace sir. 🙏
In as much as I love this interview, I dislike the fact that Baba Hunter was economical with the TRUTH. Some of what he said here will be debunk as time goes on.
Barrister is good,but Why barrister fans like trouble,thay can never bromote Kollington or any musicians,but Kollington fans talk good about barrister.some people don't understand what thay call music, music is not what u listen to and begin to think always,u gain from music and enjoy more ,forget your sorrow with good melody.respect Kollington.
One of the people causing trouble between musicians... All talk about Kollington, Wasiu, and Sunny Ade is totally biased ..kollington and Barrister were childhood friends before SAB employed you..Wasiu's first album was'Abode Mecca' in 1980 and Kollington Kollington began recording for Nigerian EMI in late 1974 and early 1975. K1 album was never to rank Barrister 14!! but was based on the listing of popular Elders of "were" at that time..
Kollington had said it on many occasions that Barrister was older than him. Barrister was then a friend to a much younger Kollington. Hmmmm, humility per excellence.
Delẹ, well done. In my opinion, this man is very bias, how can he say Wasiu started music almost at the same time with Kollington Ayinla. However, barrister said it himself that Kollington Ayinla brought him to the Nigerian army. Why is he saying they didn't friend for so long.
Dele Adeyanju, you accused barrister fans of being rude to Kollington. That's nothing but half truth. Countless times, I have seen kollington fans being rude to barrister, too. It goes both ways. There are a number of times where Kollington fans celebrated any negative thing said by anybody about barrister as if they've won a trophy. Like the one said by Wahab Ilori and Bashiru Ajani.
Baale Adeyanju, Please re-invite Elder Odeyemi when his voice gets far better. His seeming inaudibility does not make this interview as fascinating and attractive as could have been envisaged.
Baba is still tilted towards Barry. That's understandable. The claim of fuji was a publicity package. He claimed that " social"introduced both Barry and Kolly to each other. While both claimed they know each other personally. Baba said there was no Kolly until 1978 later he said he came out in 1963. I still respect Baba 🙏.
He really contradicted himself. I can sense that most of lies we were hearing from some SAB Fans originated from him. GKA first LP Album was in 1974. The success of that Album was what made it easy for him to perform Hajj in 1975. He has been a successful Fuji Musician since 1974. And again, Wahabi Ilori was not singing like GKA. That is not true. I detected many false claim he made on this interview (even about SAB). How I wish late Olajide (Social Barrister) is alive today so that he can come and debunk most of the lies. Even in the absence of late Olajide, Baale Agbaletu can get in touch with Dr. Victor Ofili. He was the former PRO to GKA. He has some of those facts in Fuji.
You knew SAB after he turned professional musician while SAB and GKA were actually together since their youths. They have both talked about how the visited each others before Fiji was created. Social linked them together during Ajiwere Ajisari and they both joined the military after. SAB in one of his interviews confirmed he joined the military because of GKA. These two musicians rivalries promoted Fuji Musics. You were not there during their early ages. Anything you said about their Ajiwere times was the history you had. The two were friends. If not why did SAB named first GKA son and why did SAB named his first son after GKA. I love both of them but it was SAB of a blessed memories that came out first. I disagree with you that you are older than GKA as he always say he accept any age he is called. Your stories about SAB and GKA is contradictory. Fela their big brother never partook in Juju competition. You may be a journalist but that did not mean you got all the stories right. You were missing were music time with fuji music time. I don't understand what you are trying to achieve exactly. Just creating another wahala among the musicians. Thank God Obey and KSA are wiser!!!
This man is very biased. He has a lot of negative minds about Killington. Barrister said a lot about his relationship with Kolington several times while alive and the man kept debunking it. But why?
Agbaletu this man didn't know much about barrister and Fuji music by saying Killington and barrister were not close,go and watch interview gbenga adewusi when barrister said him and Killington were very close ,also said he joined Killington in the am military , Killington first album 1970, oga you don't beginning of Fuji saying nonsense,dele you ask this man a
Mr agbaletu don't bring this type of liars again,mr dele you ask tis man a question about wasiu ,on a king he is saying another thing,mr dele you are the one supply the anser,he also liar that barrister choose wasiu for those king maker all liars,go and watch barrister interview on the issue of a king barry said he didn't know who or group crown wasiu a king.stop nonsense talk. You don't need to supply answer to the question you no.
Mr error ,very musician have their own difference type of aword, not today day crown musician no body talk, your paper fill is not a new thing, when Killington have fire disaster plenty of awards bont.kola was crowd many occasions
Alh Sikiru Ayinde Barrister only promoted Kollington till he died as his friend They were never closed due to the fact that Alh kollington Ayinla didn't accept Barrister as his senior and benefactor in music and age but the real fact is Alh Sikiru Atinde Barrister was a lot older by 5-6 years Alh Kollington had been misleading his supporters since the beginning... kollington should be 71 years old in 2024 while Alh Barrister should be 76 years of age if he was alive. RIP Alh Sikiru Ayinde barrister MFR

You are right. The only person that I don't want him to interview is that man, K1.
Lol. If he doesn't interview K1, will it make you money? Many of you talk anyhow.
Interesting interview. Great insight into the lives of these great Yoruba musical legends.
Timely interview. Elder was my egbon and senior colleague at the same time. He was tossed to Egbado by the Sketch mgmt when i knew him.

What's this jargon that this man is saying? Why not kuku say Wasiu started b4 Kollington . Baba must be suffering from dementia.
Be like say this man just hate Kollington and even Wasiu
The baba is living in his own deluded world!
Just calm down and little to what he said, he said Kollington came out 1963 , but professionally 1978

You're wrong. You people should go and listen to Kollington's interviews. He said, " Sikiru jumilo." That is Sikiru was older than me.
Iyanda Sawaba had also confirmed that Barrister was Kollington's senior in the music world.
