By: Israel Adeleke
Barely 48 hours after the release of a new Christmas-centric single by Abeokuta-based multi-talented broadcaster and music artiste, Olufemi Orunsola, stage named Awe, commendations for his creativity have started to pour in from different quarters as his Artiste management hints of an upcoming Royalty tour of Egbaland before Christmas.
OPEN TELEVISION NAIJA (OTN) News reports that a categorical open commendation for the creative ingenuity of Awe came from a reputable Egba culture promoter and Itoko Chieftain who shuttles between Nigeria and Canada, the Asiwaju of Itoko Egbaland, Asiwaju Teju Oyewole on Saturday.
In a personal message sent to Awe by the Egba Chief, made available to OTN News, Asiwaju Oyewole commended the creative ingenuity and consistency of Awe in churning out evergreen songs on issues of topical significance over the years.
Asiwaju Oyewole, who is one of the pillars of Egba Descendants Unions in the Diaspora under the umbrella of All Egba National Associations, (ENA), expressed utmost pride and sense of identification with Olufemi Orunsola, stating, "Our Great and illustrious son of Egba, Agba agbe’hun safefe. (Meaning Notable broadcaster). Well done, my dear brother."
He added that, "All Egba National Associations, USA / Canada (ENA) will also enjoy the Egba Carol song."
Asiwaju Oyewole also affirmed that he has indeed found the new song worthy of the listening attention of the Alake and Paramount ruler of Egbaland, His Royal Majesty, Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo Okukenu IV, a royal father who takes personal pride in projection of Egba arts and culture to the whole world at all times.
In a related development, another frontline daughter of Egbaland of the ICLED Business School, Lekki Lagos fame, Prof Olajumoke Familoni has also commended the creative ingenuity of Awe whom she describes as an innovative media entrepreneur of egba extraction who has been deploying the instrumentality of the media and music to project Egbaland over the years.
Prof. Familoni, who acknowledged that Egba Descendants in the United States under the umbrella of EGBAGA, will also cherish the Egba flavours brought to bear with the rendition of Christmas carol by Orunsola this Christmas.
Meanwhile, Awe's manager, Mr. Tunde Adeojo has revealed that arrangements are at top gear for a courtesy visit to the Alake and Paramount ruler of Egbaland, HRM Oba Dr. Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo Okukenu IV, ahead of the Christmas day.
"We have thought it prudent for Awe to personally visit the Paramount ruler of Egbaland to render his unique Egba-centric new single -Egba Carol before the royal father to seek his royal blessings upon his creative ingenuity," Adeojo stated.
