IYA NI WURA IYEBIYE By Dele Ojo.IS A SONG BEST SUITED FOR MY LATE WIFE DORCAS MONISOLA FAGBOLA Dele Ojo was a great musician who learnt through the ropes . He started music in 1955 as a band instructor in Ekiti town of Igbara Oke until 1958 when he was employed as a teacher in Akure.There he practised trumpeting until he moved to Lagos in 1962 to join Victor Olaiya the evil genius of high-life. Deles shift from high life to juju was partly in response to socio-economic situation, at that time. Anyway, that is a matter for another day This particular record reminds me not only of the statement of our late sage Chief Obafemi Awolowo that his wife Mama HID Awolowo was a jewel of inestimable value, but it best suited in describing my late wife Baba Awolowo must have had late Dorcas Monisola Fagbola, my honey in contemplation. She indeed was a wife and mother of inestimable value to me and her children. She became irreplaceable . Please enjoy Dele Ojos Iya ni wura iye-biye. while paying special attention to its lyrics
