King Sunny Ade, the famous Juju musician, has spoken out to stop rumours about him. He's said that he wasn't kidnapped, contrary to what some people were saying.
People had been talking online for a few days, saying that he'd been taken. This made his fans concerned and unsure what was happening.
In response to the ongoing frenzy, Sunny Ade took to a video released by his wife, Mrs. Bose Olubo-Adegeye, to dispel the unfounded rumours.
“Nobody kidnapped me,” the renowned singer said with his signature calmness.
“I pray, as I don’t want anybody to kidnap me. I believe the whole world is in love with me. This is me, King Sunny Ade.
“I have to thank God and you, my fans, for the concern. I have been doing my shows. I was at a show last Saturday at Lekki, Lagos. I am on my way to have a show, and I am coming back again to play in Lagos, as well,” he said.
Sunny Ade, affectionately known as KSA, reassured his fans, thanking them for their concern and love.
The musician explained that the confusion surrounding his absence could have been linked to the fact that some of his children hadn’t seen him recently.
“I know my children are in love with me, and they want to see me. I didn’t go anywhere. This is me. I thank the children, too, for their concern as well,” KSA added
The 78-year-old performer, famous for his lively shows and work in Nigerian music, said he still loves making music.
"By God’s grace, enjoyment continues. I am still in music. Music is my life; it is my business, and I will continue to do it.”
