Many best female musicians ....... Dora Ifudu, Tina Onwdiwe (African Òyìnbó), Frank Kuboye Of Jazz 38, Christy Igbokwe, Stella Money, The Lijadu Sisters .....etc.

She was even fell in love and was married to a Yoruba Muslim, and gave him 2 kids or so at some point. She is a totally detribilized Nigerian.

The favouite cultural dance song in primary school in the 90s was her track inyogogo iyo go inyogogo or sometimes like that.

Another great song of hers is dancing in the sun.

My favourite song of her is one love keep us together. The electric guitar played on that track was fire. If I was to marry an Igbo woman, it would have been an Imo woman because of the Elegant stallion - her nickname. She was my woman crush as a kid.

So far, she is the best female musician to ever come out of Nigeria. I can't think of any other that comes close to her. I am sure people born in 1980s and below can relate very well. Let's celebrate her while she is still here with us.[/quote]

One of the greatest talented Nigerian woman,I join others to celebrate you mama Onyeka.

Fela nearly wan die for her mata those days 😁

Ogegeodey:
She is aging gracefully.

She was very active in Jonathan’s government then.

God bless and keep you ma.

That's not are most recent pictures....she is older now, though still graceful

Let celebrate this beautiful and brainy dive of alaigbo to the world. Onwenu's collabo with the legendary King Sunny Ade; "WAIT FOR ME" One of the evergreen romance hit track mehn!

She sang for Abacha's life presidency as part of Daniel Kanu's million man march and that alone destroys her legacy.

You will continue to live a life of irrelevance.

Whenever someone wants to celebrate you - someone else will rise up and destroy your reputation as you have attempted to do.

Thankfully, you will never be able to match her significance, education or influence.

No one will ever look up to you for inspiration as you won't ever get a chance to climb on a pedestal

Hotfreeze:
The highest point of her career was getting impregnated by a a Yoruba man. Twice.

She is a role model to many young Igbo ladies who are begging their creator to give them the unbelievable honour of getting impregnated by Yoruba men.

Is it me or is it just coincidence?

As a French teacher, last year, I used Wole Soyinka, Bola Tinubu, Peter Obi, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and Onyeka Onwenu as persons of interest in teaching. I gave their profiles in French. Many of the students hardly knew these figures. Lol. But they knew Destiny Etiko and co.

This month alone, three of them have made headlines - W S, P O, O O. NOI celebrated her birthday some weeks ago and our own Tinubu is always in the news.

To the topic: She's a beautiful woman with a lovely voice.

AmandaLuv:
The Amazon herself. My mum's very good friend.

The best song of hers for Nigeria at this moment is
Bia nulu olu anyi oo
Nna bia nulu olu anyi oo

Bia nulu olu anyi ooo
Nna bia nulu olu anyi

Onweghi mgbe ike mmadu ga kali ike Chukwu
Onweghi mgbe ike mmadu ga akali ike Chukwu

Nna bia nulu
Olisa kelu uwa bia nulu olu anyi!

That's my favourite too. That song reminds me of a period in my childhood. How time flies

dreamer!

During military era. It's hard to try tribal nonsense. That's one of the few things the military are good for, they Sabi instill discipline on the populace.

dey don't seek election nor validation. Politicians on the otherhand use division as a tool to win. I just hope such mechanisms won't destroy us all.

Mitsurugi:
This woman. Make I no just talk.

Advice: Never try to get very close to those you idolize you may end up crushed

She acts proud.

Yxxx:
She acts proud.

Proud, rude and thick-headed

Nostalgia feelings - Sunny Ade's girlfriend that year when the following songs were recorded

"wait for me" and
"you and I go live as one"

What about the lady of songs from akwa ibom I can't remember her name now? I think she has better songs than oyenka.

YorubaBiafran:
Yes o! Igbo Amaka!

It pains me that I wasted past 2 Years Championing Yoruba nonsense on NairaLand and on WhatsApp, not anymore! All NairaLanders know my Former Monika, everyone Knows I was the one that most deeply condemned Igbos and Praised Yorubas to highest Heaven. But the Truth is I can Not continue to waste my Life in Championing Nonsense, I say it categorically that Yoruba People are never Destined to Unite in Love as Igbos do. And I saw the clear Revelations several times that Biafra Visa became the most-sought after in Africa, even if it takes the next 20 Years for Nigeria to divide. My Revelations always come to pass, this is why I have chosen to Support Biafra because the Igbo Nation's Destiny for Greatness is Unstoppable!

This is really very serious.

Iyogogo

Onyenka Owenu is a forgotten musician ....let come close to the likes of Most of the Yoruba muscians who kept making waves from 60s till date ....

Above is the famous Onyeka Onwenu investigative reportage of the monumental corruption and wastage of national resources in 1984 during the inglorious Buhari military junta regime era. This was when journalism was journalism not these days of brown envelope journalists like Sam Omatseye, Reuben Abati.

Meanwhile, the same political scenario and trajectory since post independence is still plaguing Nigeria till date. This just confirmed that the nation is under a curse.

E get as e be.
I swear.

NIGERIA HAS BEEN INTO WRONG HAND SINCE INCEPTION TILL DATE

spiceadole:
How you carefully didn't mention and condemn the fact that she was married twice amazes me..lol

What does that have to do with anything? Does she not have the right to seek love and peace ?

Happiness is found where you seek it.

Jeez

You didn't get the point.
But if a woman divorces and remarries in this generation,she will be castigated.
We make it look like the older women NEVER left their marriages to try again or even remain unmarried
