Veteran poet, music producer and Yoruba culture promoter, Chief Olanrewaju Adepoju is dead.
PMParrot can authoritatively confirm that the popular artiste died at his Idi Orogbo off Ring Ring Road, Ibadan, Oyo State residence around 7pm on Sunday evening after a rather protracted old-age related ailments.
A family source informed that the age of Chief Adepoju cannot be officially quoted for now.
Said the family source “our father’s age cannot be officially quoted yet until we go through his records. But his contemporaries are aged 100 and above”.
The late valiant ‘ewi exponent’ who waxed several records to fight against societal ills and military adventure in politics once told PMParrot that he never experienced being in classroom to learn.
Our source, however, confirmed that the respected Islamic cleric will be buried according to Islamic rites on Monday by 4pm.
