King Sunny Ade is a popular name when music is the topic and he’s been in the game for quite a long time.


On Sunday, the 11th of December, the Eri Okan musician threw a concert to mark his 7oth birthday and this concert featured a lot of A-listers in the music game as well as legends like himself.

We watched the concert and while the music was going on, King Sunny Ade’s guitar was auctioned.
