Though
death has stopped the beat of highlife singer, Fatai Olagunju, popularly known
as Rolling Dollar, his family wants his fans to keep the tempo going, otherwise
there will be "trouble". The location was Millennium Estate, Oko-Oba,
Agege, Lagos residence of deceased highlife singer, Fatai Olagunju, otherwise
called Rolling Dollar.
His two
wives, Zainab and Serifat, some of his children including Sikiru-who is the
singer’s 50-year-old first son, wore a pensive mood as this correspondent
walked into their home...
It was
evident from their faces that they were yet to come to terms with the reality
of the death of the 86-year-old songbird, Rolling Dollar, who breathed his last
on June 12, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the acclaimed “fairest and
freest” election in Nigeria. The musician shot to stardom a few years back via
a successful album, Won Kere si Number Wa. But despite his fame, the family is
worried about the education of his younger children.
