Ayinla omowura"s fabled academic destitution was well documented,albeit ineducable--much due to rascality,thuggery and violence.Miraculously he metamorphosed himself into elevated,money-spinning brilliant recording artist whereupon he was accorded mass adulation and hero worship-deservedly.

I was introduced to Ayinla by my school mate at Lawanson ..suru-lere he lived in Mushin..his name Ganiyu..thanks for the memory Anigilaje....God Bless!!!

@akknile I dont think he meant to "creat divisions here", I quite agree with him that there was rilvalry of some sort between the Egbas and Ijebus at some point in the 70s-80s. Put it this way, both of my parents are from Ijebu Igbo and so I can say that I am from Ijebu Igbo, and when I was a youth I witnessed my extended family members holding a family meeting to discuss their disapproval of one of my Aunts from marrying an Egba man, Guess why? Because he is "Egba", i.e, Rivalry

I swear I don't know any other NIGERIAN singer that is so vibrant and charismatic as this guy, plus he sings with deep wisdom and has a lovely voice..he's what you call CLASSY....Respect.

That was funny. But we are all one now IJEGBA the new name for the people from Ogun State of Ijebu and Egba.

Hello everyone,
It'll be 30 years since he died in May. I hope we could do something just to creat awareness to his music...probably on facebook any other effective medium

Plz tell me more about him. How did he sound? I visited is grave when my dad sent me to Abeokuta quite a while ago. I think is a genius...well informed and yet uneducated!
