The zero hour is here. AYINLA OMOWURA: LIFE AND TIMES OF AN APALA LEGEND is ready. It’s hot. It’s fresh, fresh from the press. I saw it. I felt it. Now, I have it.
It’s an addition into the family of few books on my shelf. Thank you, Dr Festus Adedayo. Thank you for breaking the ice. Thank you for giving Ayinla Omowura intellectual face.
Your effort was a sacrifice only a tiny few fans can make, especially as regard financial wherewithal. I can only wish you rewards beyond your projection.
By Wednesday, May 6, this book will be available at affordable price. This one is not a leaflet hastily put together and hurriedly printed to swindle readers.
This one is a book, a bumper volume happily written in a lucid, juicy prose which anyone, who can read alphabets, will find accessible.
My brief diaolgue with the author, in his cozy office about two hours ago, revealed a journalist, scholar and lawyer in genuine love with Omowura music.
Wait for it, Adedayo’s love did not becloud his eyes to spot Omowura’s shortcomings. You need to buy this book to have privileged insight into the totality of Eegunmogaji. God bless this book!
Postscript: Laolu, one of Adedayo’s foot soldiers was the photographer. Thanks!
