It is practically impossible to know Nigeria’s first singer because singing as always been part of the human culture from time immemorial but the first ever Nigerian to release an album is Canon Josiah Jesse Ransome Kuti (Fela Anikulapo’s Grandfather and Prof Wole Soyinka’s great-grand father). He has been composing songs since 1878 and and his last work was released in 4th August, 1921. His album is still at the British Museum.. The Reverend Canon Josiah Jesse Ransome-Kuti, was perhaps the earliest person in Nigeria to compose gospel songs in form of Church hymns used in the early Anglican Church at St Peter Cathedral Church, Ake Abeokuta Ogun state Nigeria.

1879..... And you call him a Nigerian?
That was long before this zoo came into existence...
He prolly would have made history as the first drug baron if he were born in the zoo era.

Music and effective Christian ministry are inseparable. But modern day musicians are losing the awe of Christian worship for ungodly dance steps. Christian worship should have a level of decorum and serenity .
