Dan Maraya Jos used music to contribute to national unity, peace and stability by preaching togetherness. I will miss him.

Dan maraya, Sani Sabulu, Barmani Choge, Aliyu Dan Dawa Were the Northern Musicians that shaped my growing up, thanks to my dad who was their die hard fan.
We shall all miss him but he's songs live on.
Allah ya as kahuta!

Quite a well known face on TV up North.

RIP

Video of the man here

I was not into his music...but growing up North, you had him being played either as a filler...or occasionally for 30 minutes.(on good old NTA Kaduna).

Hope Nigeria continues to honor its traditional music....of all tribes. (Instead of that hip wetin?)

Thanks for the link.

Even though I never did understand his language, I found his songs melodious and funny.

I first knew about Dan Maraya when as a kid I came across a pictorial book of Gowon's post civil war tour of all states. He performed in jos at the time in the old Benue-plateau state. I was struck by his name as it had this musical connotation, his musical status notwithstanding.Dude was very popular especially up north in his prime . May his soul rest in peace . Amen.
