Legendary Nigerian Juju singer, King Sunny Ade (KSA), has put swirling rumours about his well-being to rest after a video surfaced online showing him performing energetically at a social function.
The Grammy-nominated music icon was captured in high spirits on Thursday, May 1, 2025, as he thrilled guests at a burial ceremony in Akure, Ondo State.
Dressed elegantly in a blue suit and supported by his full band, the 77-year-old Juju maestro showed no signs of slowing down as he performed one of his timeless Yoruba classics to an excited crowd.
