There's also this music whose soundtrack was used for an advert on " morning fresh " a liquid soap for wash in the early 90's the title of her song is " where do I go from here " I am seriously looking for her . I guess her name is modupe . |

Interesting thread, I was hooked right till the very end. I hope op finds what he is looking for. I remember her songs esp the "Nigeria my beloved country" This thread also made me search for the Lijadu sisters out of curiosity because of a comment someone made. Actually there are fairly (interview) recent videos of them. Never heard of them before now and the first song I heard from YouTube "come on home" just blew me away. This thread is a treasure. Goodnight yall 7 Likes 1 Share |

Looking for the music which was soundtrack of a program featured often around 0730hrs to 0800hrs in the morning on RN-2 back then...starts with a voice similar to Funmi Adams' too, something like "Africa life...."....when the morning light, when your light appears"...Anyone who can help pls? Would be grateful. Thanks OP for this wonderful thread....feels like I'm back to the '80s |

That song Nigeria my beloved country can make someone think deeply sha and makes you wonder what went wrong with the country. Late 90s while in nursery school or so. The song was used alot. Gives me this beautiful emotional kinda memory. 6 Likes |

This is just too amazing. I had actually forgotten her name till now. Funmi Adams "Omolasho"song have been playing on my lips for the past two weeks. I live in Accra, Ghana. Memories of her song just came flooding back with nothing in particular to kick start it. Wow. It is shocking to me that a lot more people were also thinking about her. Dear Lord, wher is she God bless you op. She probably need oir prayers. Baba God hear us today we pray. 5 Likes |

Wow, I just read through from page 1 down to the last . Even though most people that started the thread were mostly the 80's . I'm early 90's and can remember her songs, Nigeria my beloved Country gave me this kind of patriotic and goose bump feeling. I just listened to the song again and I can't believe I just shed a tear....I just downloaded Christy Igbokwe's OMo mi seunrere too .....Why Don't We have songs like these anymore I'm sure we have Nigerians in Pittsburgh that'll be able to find her if the one on this thread is acting somehow. Come to think of it , there are many sensible people on hidden parts of Nairaland...Even Nwamaikpe had to drop his #$#% to contribute meaningfully 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Wow see Nigerians appreciating our own. I need to read up on this lady but why will she abandon a country she loved so much, who is she, how can someone with such q beautiful voice disappear into thin air? Going by the lyrics of her song she is a rare gem, isn't she on social media |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBAoRf1O6m8 This song just brought back childhood memories from the early 90s. This song used to be very popular back then. Like someone said, this current indomie generation really missed a lot. The kind and trend of songs we have nowadays eh are nothing to write about. @warrenweste....i'm in the US but i'm not in PA and even if I offer to pay for the subscription on that website, peoplesmart, and we get her address, who will offer to visit her in her house? 2 Likes |

sirvvy:bro, I just weak. during those days, I always believe & hope in Nigeria. I used to wonder why the Nigeria of 80s & 90s is not what we experienced these days. At times, I used to feel like the world should just come to an end. 2 Likes |

Till date Omolasho still rings in my brain like yesterday, songs like "Nigeria my beloved country" should be played from time to time to remind our lost youths of the meaning of patriotism. It's a pity that these days our radio stations promote noise and crime other Than songs of this nature. Op please don't relent let's extend this search to other social media platforms can we OP? 3 Likes |
