Faleti was responsible for translating Nigeria’s National Anthem from English to Yoruba. Before his death, the Oyo-born author received many awards, both locally and internationally, including the national honour of Officer of the Order of the Niger, the Festival of Arts award with Eda Ko L’aropin (1995) and the Afro-Hollywood Award for Outstanding Performance in Arts.

He sounds like a great man for being a traditionalist and translating our nation anthem from English to Yoruba. I did not know him, but may his Soul Rest in peace.
