Juju music legend, King Sunny Adegeye (KSA) who will be 70 on Thursday (22nd September) was the Focus of celebration on Fact File, a RayPower Network Segment on the Ultimate Morning Show (UMS) this morning, 19th September, 2016. The breakfast programme which also featured Veteran Broadcaster, Producer, Entertainment Writer and Critic,Pa Benson Idonije examined Sunny as a legend, his achievements and how Nigeria can harness his global exploits and achievements in repositioning Nigeria in the global arena and boosting her economy.
Benson Idonije who spoke on Sunny's career and his staying power that have spanned 5 decades called on government to provide a conducive environment for arts and entertainment to thrive and as avenue for employment and revenue generation.
The Show anchored by award winning Ambrose Olutayo Somide also had another Juju Music Master, Chief Ebenezer Obey Fabiyi who also celebrated his iconic colleague saying KSA was a genius who has blessed the world with his talent and intellect.
An utterly stunned KSA while acknowledging all the kinds words said he owed a lot to the Media and the people and promised not to give up yet as he still had enough energy to go on even at 70.
Both Obey and KSA debunked the rumour of rifts that has dodged their careers of over 50 years. They maintained that they have over the years enjoyed warm relationship built on mutual respect and comradeship.
That was the first time both would appear on a live radio show in over 40 years.
