A few years ago, back when Abuja was where I called home, I came across a notice. Cobhams Asuquo, the brilliant producer, was coming to town. He was coming to support the guitar guy Bez, who was the main attraction. I could buy Bez s debut album directly and have it signed. I got to the venue. I bought the album and got it signed. His performance that evening was delightful, and back home, I inserted the CDinmy player. The title track, the first on the album, greeted my ears with its hopeful chorus: ‘’I have a dream that someday I’ll be the super sun. Just who was this guy with somewhat celestial dreams?
Adunni & Nefretiti is an all female singing group which was established in 2006 by Adunni Orobiyi, then a fresh graduate of Creative Arts from the University of Lagos, Nigeria.
