Nigerians have been paying homage to Mike Ejeagha, the highlife artist behind the viral sound used in Brain Jotter’s dance. 😍😍
The 92-year-old musician has been receiving cash gifts, with some unconfirmed reports suggesting that Brain Jotter even gave him a car.
“Gwo Gwo Gwo” was popular in the 70s and 80s, telling the story of how the tortoise tricked his friend the elephant into believing the King wanted him (the elephant) to be the chairman of his Ofala festival, leading to the song’s title, “Ka esi le onye isi oche” (how the chairman was sold).
The cunning tortoise’s real goal was to marry the King’s daughter, who demanded an elephant as a condition for marriage.
Thing I love to see ❤️❤️❤️
