She's childless actually

If she hadn't been found since the 90s how did you then get to know she is childless ?

For those who are still intent on going on the wild goose chase to find Funmi Adams, click on this Facebook link below. The lady is based in the UK, bears the same name and looks very much like her. Best of luck!

Most likely she's the one. The resemblance is so strong

Haven't been found since the 90's ?? Did she disappear from the face of the Earth ??

Since the 90's ?? She performed in Lagos in 2010

Maybe the people who couldn't find her are dumb people like you

She's childless, how do i know ?? Because I'm not retardéd

I hope she is found. I once tried conducting an online search on her but didn't get any substantive information.
Her song ''Nigeria My beloved country was a beautiful anthem in my childhood days. It made me feel patrotic and proud of Nigeria....can't say the same nowadays.
Anyway,who knows the Singer and title of this oldie - 'Egwu Egwu Igbo amaka, Omalicha nwa bia tewa la m egwu? I've been searching for this song.
I'm earnestly waiting for a response,thank you.

Hi,

I am a big fan of your work and i know you did some work with funmi adams in the 80s. Myself and some young ones born in the 80s created an online thread on the whereabouts of funmi adams. The thread can be visited on https://www.nairaland.com/2636772/hunt-funmi-adams-1-updated

We will be grateful if you can shed some light on her recent whereabouts and her career as no one seems to have seen or heard from funmi adams for decades.

Thank you sir.

not heard from or seen her for some years.

Everyone on the forum can see who the retard is amongst the two of us. You are not a relative to someone yet you know she is childless. Arindin!

yea the university where professor eugba worked replied my mail telling me hes retired but will contact him and get back to me,plus i also met someone online who was part of the kings college team and was in the nigeria my beloved country's video and he said he also lived at 1005 flat and know a little about funmi,am also still waiting to hear from him...as soon as its complied will update the thread

I was part of the videos, "Nigeria my beloved country" and "all we need is love".

I think there was a similar thread I gave vivid description of possible ways of searching for Aunty Funmi Adams, specifically at the National Council for Arts and Culture, Iganmu, that is if they are still there.

There's someone that just came to mind now, who I'm going to get in touch with.

Like I said up there, let's not loose hope yet. I will get in touch with Aunty in London and revert back to you.

We did the songs I referred to up there when I was in primary five, now I'm a masters degree holder, with two kids; that tells you how long it's been.

Am i Buhari's relative ?? But i know everything about him

Were you born on the highway because that's where most accidents do happen

You're retardéd if you don't know that someone's public information, where they lived, how old they are, their criminal records, their court records, everything about them can be accessed by anyone in the USA, oh i forgot you live in a third world country

Dude, she's the Funmi Adams you guys have been looking for

Over here, you can't just walk into people's home even if they're your parents or relatives

Believe me, if there's any serious importance of you guys wanting to know her whereabouts, i would waste my time and go have a chat with her and maybe get her pictures

But she may want some privacy or disconnect from old friends or something like that and she doesn't want anyone disturbing her

Pls tell us more...and where are you located to?

The first time we performed the song was on May 29th 1989, at the National Theatre, Iganmu, on Children's day, with the then Head of State's daughter, Halima Babangida. Then we did the video sometimes in 1990. One of the shot was taken at Prince Jide Adeniyi's house at Anthony Village. Prince Jide was a music promoter, he owns POATSON.
