Legendary Juju singer Sunny Ade recently shared his thoughts on his close relationship with the late singer Onyeka Onwenu.
Sunny Ade visited Onwenu’s family to offer his condolences and was later interviewed by QEDng and other media outlets.
When asked about his relationship with Onwenu, Sunny Ade said, “I can’t explain it; you know if they give you the news of the death of a loved one who has to do with your life and also your work.”
He emphasized that Onwenu was not just an ordinary person but someone who would often give him advice, which was always helpful. “She’s not just an ordinary woman; she was someone who would sit down with you and she used to say, ‘Can I chip in some advice?’ and the advice was always correct,” he added.
Sunny Ade fondly remembered her significant contributions to his music and career. “She used to do more than I did; when it comes to music that people do together, she used to do more. She would tap me and say, ‘Sunny, let’s take it this way,’ and it was always good,” he recalled.
