His rise on the Fuji Music scene was rapid. He managed to attract a lot of attention to himself. His image soared with each release and he soon became a household name in Nigeria. In early 1990, Ayuba was signed on by Sony Music (Nigerian) to record an album, Bubble. Bubble released in 1991, brought Ayuba into international prominence.

For the first time in history, a Fuji Music album dominated the scene, topping musical charts for six consecutive months, winning multiple awards at the Nigerian Music Awards, (NMA). It bagged Ayuba the coveted Artiste of the Year Awards, Including the Album of the Year Award, Song of the Year Award and Best Fuji Album of the Year Award-four in all. It sold beyond expectations and made Ayuba a mega-star artiste.

READ HIS LATEST INTERVIEW WITH GOLDMYNETV 

How do you plan to celebrate your 50th birthday?

Celebration is every day, when you sleep and wake up that alone is celebration. I plan to host my friends, visit the less privilege and attend a special thanks giving at my church.

At the time you set out, what were the things you had in mind to achieve?

I started at the age of 7, I was a young man who had no idea what the future has in stock but who was just in love with singing. I remember the name written on my first band truck ''Adewale Adeyuba and his future Fuji star'' as if I knew I was going to be a Fuji star. I always pray to achieve what Bob Marley did with reggae music to popularize Fuji beyond Nigeria.

How many albums have you done?

18 in Nigeria, and 3 international albums.

When is your next album coming out?

What we do now, is track. We record a 5 minutes song, shoot the video, distribute to radio and TV station in Nigeria to tell our fans we are still here. Through that people can also engage us for shows. I recently released a track with vector 'happy people'. I just finished recording a track with Pasuma, Obesere and Kollington Ayinla called 'Another level', it would be released soon.

What inspired you to do a collaboration outside Fuji?

I did that to get more fans to my brand of music. Also to let people know Adewale Ayuba is multi-talented.

What has life taught you at 50?

No matter what we do we should be straight forward and put God first.

Yesterday the viral reports on the gruesome murder of Silverbird television employee, Aishat Noble Mustapha was on air. She was stabbed on Saturday 14th March, soon after she returned home from work.
An eyewitness who resides in her neigbhourhood in Ogudu GRA, Lagos, has now shared the true story with YNaija, so sad, read below:

The guy also resides in the estate, he is a married man and we could hear her threatening him, saying she will tell his wife about the pregnancy she had for him. The man was shouting back, and he got angry when she said she will report to his wife….but after a while, the argument stopped and there was no more shouting. Moments later, she ran out of the house with scars all over her body, and while running she fell into the gutter."

How Neighbors found her:
"That was when neighbors found her. She was still breathing so she was rushed to a specialist hospital along Ogudu road then to the General Hospital in Gbagada, but no one wanted to admit her without a police report…it was when she was taken to the police station, that she gave up the ghost."

We saw a knife with blood in the compound but by the time the police came to pick up the knife, they didn't see it again, someone had taken it but I don't know who.

This is so sad, she was a young promising and beautiful woman, she lost her sister just last year.  It's like it is the guy that rented the apartment for her

Boko Haram Fights Nigerian Troops Using Snakes (Photo)

Latest Emerging report has it that due to the obviously encouraging victory that the Nigerian Army has recorded in few days over Boko Haram, the insurgent group have finally decided to develop a new contrivance to attack.

One of Naij's publications revealed that during an alleged counter attack against the Insurgents in Bama, the Nigerian troops were faced with not just humans but snakes.

Some Boko Haram members were said to have set out big snakes in order to overpower the Military men who were also ready for a showdown.

However, this made the Military men not only faced with the challenges of littered land mines by the insurgents but also faced with the issue of fighter snakes intentionally put out to frustrate the efforts of the military and probably getting rid of our ever-ready military officers.

Luckily, these snakes were said to be killed and here is a supposed picture of a massive one killed during the mop up operation.

ACTOR MUYIWA ADEMOLA’S MUM SPEAKS – ‘‘I THOUGHT MY SON WILL END UP SELLING PALM OIL’’

Mrs Ruth Ademola is the mother of top Yoruba actor, Muyiwa Ademola who owns Muyiwa authentic school of drama in Ibadan, Oyo state. She was a prominent business woman in Ibadan. Not quite long, particularly during the burial of her late husband, Prince Isaiah Awofe Ademola, she spoke to Yoruba movie reporter about her thought over Muyiwa's career and her feelings about her husband's demise.

Excerpts:

How do you feel about your late husband?

It's very sad to lose your love ones, but glory be to God that he didn't live to bury his children or his wife. I believe that old age was responsible for his death because his family took care of him. His death was so painful because he was a God-given fellow in the family.

What do you miss about him since his passage to glory?

I just have to accept my destiny because it has been written that way. He was so caring and I am going to miss that about him.

How did you meet and fall in love with him?

We met according to the way we were supposed to meet and he wooed me. That is all. We met here in Ibadan when he was a contractor but after our union, he switched over to Railway Corporation as one of their prominent staffers. We got married years back during the era of Adelabu Penkelemex and I started having my kids 10 years after marriage.

Were there no pressure from his family during that 10 years?

There were pressures but I accepted my fate, and waited for God's time which finally came to pass.

What were you doing then?                                                                                                            

I was a business woman, I sold palm oil and my children also assisted me in doing that particularly muyiwa. Each time they return from school, they already knew what to do. Muyiwa would hawk palm oil while his brothers and sisters would go with either salt or nylon at Jumat mosque in Oja Oba, Ibadan. Muyiwa would always ask me to buy quality one because of the customers he had.

Do you mean if not for movies, he would have ended up selling palm oil?

Yes of course. I thought he would end up selling palm oil because he knew the in and out of the business and he was famous with it in the market before he ventured into acting. He's a very industrious person. He always opted to work because he knew how much would be his income. He used to take my money as well and whenever I asked him, he would promise to return it the following day, he always paid back.

What do you think he used the money for?

After eating at home, they have no opportunity to chew on the street like others because they were not taught with that. He probably used it in buying things needed in school because anytime they ask him to bring something in school, he used the money for that because his father wasn't always at home due to the nature of his job.

At what age did he stop hawking palm oil?

I can't recollect the actual age but he stopped hawking after his secondary school education, thereafter, he started acting.

What was your opinion when he told you he was going into acting?

His father didn't allow him but whenever he came to me, I did permit him because he would tell me that he wanted to visit Baba Legba at Agbako and that's all

As a good mother, how did you convince his father?

I did all I could to convince him but he insisted he was not interested.

How did he feel when Muyiwa became famous through acting?

He was happy especially for having a child to exhibit the glory of the family and glory be to God for that.
