King Sunny Ade is now an Ambassador of the National Re-Orientation Programme Change Begins With Me.
The appointment was disclosed when the music maestro was received on a courtesy visit to the office of Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed who described King Sunny Ade as an icon and a trail blazer, who has reigned in the music industry for over 50 years without blemish.
Mohammed hailed King Sunny Ade for promoting the juju music genre to an enviable height with an originality that makes imitating his music an exercise in futility.
He added that the current Administration is paying more attention to the development of the entertainment industry because of its vast potential in generating employment and creating wealth.
On his part, King Sunny Ade appreciated the Minister for the uncommon passion he has shown to the entertainment industry, especially in organising the artists to achieve their potentials and contribute to nation-building.
