A 72 year old musician and member of the FAAJI AGBA musical group led by Fatai Rolling Dollars, Mr Alaba Pedro, on Tuesday died aboard an Arik flight operated on New York- Lagos route.

The late musician who was part of the musical group that went on a week musical tour of United State of America died about two hour into the 12 hour flight between New York and Lagos.
Speaking after the flight landed in Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos, the leader of the musical group, Pa Fatai Rolling Dollars, said the late Pedro was discovered to have been very weak while they were leaving their hotel for the airport. He said the airline crew had requested if the late passenger would be able to make the flight which he said he could. But one hour into the flight, the late Pedro was said to have developed breathing problem and panting for breath.

This he said necessitated some medical personnel on board the flight to come to his aid and made frantic efforts to save him. He said the late Pedro had been sick for some time but despite warnings from him and other members of the band he was still consuming alcohol throughout their stay in the US. The musical group left Nigeria for US on musical performance last Tuesday under the directorship of a Nigerian US based promoter named Kunle Tejuosho.

The hosting of the last FIFA World Cup held in South Mandela was not out of the instrumentality of the personality of Mandela. The emancipation of the South African spirit owes its continued survival to Mandela.
