Fuji lovers across the globe have lost another promoter of the genre.
Ibadan-born popular Fuji musician, Alhaji Isiaka Iyanda Sawaba popularly known as Easy Sawaba, is dead.
He died in the early hours of Wednesday at the University College Hospital, UCH, Ibadan.
Though details of his death were sketchy as at press time, OYOINSIGHT.COM recalls that the veteran Fuji star was the darling of many between 1970 and the ‘80s.
With more than twenty-two albums including Suru, Igbo Odaju, Pata Olokun, Ayetoto and Oroseniwo among others from the stable of old Adetunji Records (Babalaje Records) owned by the late Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Akanmu Adetunji, he became more popular with his leading role among the then younger generation of Fuji musicians who supported the late Fuji icon, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister when the supremacy rivalry between the former and General Kollington Ayinla was red hot.
