One of the last media houses to interview the legendary trado-modern music maker and instrumentalist Fatai Rolling Dollar on Thursday, June 6 while he was hospitalised in Lagos.
Our award-winning photographer, Bayoor Ewuoso, was also there to capture images of the ailing octogenarian musician on his hospital bed. He spoke extensively about his health and optimism about overcoming the malaise.
Unfortunately, it was not to be as he died in the morning of Wednesday, June 12 at the age of 86. History will remember him for his great contributions to music and for inspiring a generation of traditional Nigeria music artistes.
