@4her,
How old are u? You mean u don't know sunny okosun?
Well, he used to be secular musician before he became a gospel musical. He has a church at Ogba, Lagos, House of Prayer Church, and was famous for his campaign against apatheid in the old south Africa.

He was a great nigerian artist.
I forgot i am a male last night when one od his gospel song was aired in his honour, 'God Your Name is Love': I SHED TEARS. I took me some seconds to put myself together and wiped my cheeks of the tears.
NIgeria will surely miss him.

The cancer had eaten deep before they could detect it in the USA.

RIP, Sunny!!

How are the great ones falling!! Okosun will be sorely missed, a good musician, a great fighter for freedom for black people and later a good worker in the vineyard of the Lord! How sad!!

Isn't it an irony that the same South Africans that the man sang so much for their freedom from the clutches of apartheid are now maiming and killing fellow African immigrants, including Nigerians, in their country. How would Sonny have felt had he been aware of this! What an irony!
