Apola King


Another LP from the archives I found many years ago. This album on the TYC label from Lagos Nigeria was made back in the 60's or 70's - not really sure when. Typical highlife guitar band of that era.

"Idowu Animasawun as many would know had a Muslim background. Among many of his achievement in life was a household name in juju music. He was popularly known as “Apola King”. His stage artistry was a delight and so he had many followers.He is maried to Evangelist Debora Oluwafunmilola Animasawun who is a graduate of the Polytechnic Ibadan, she retired from St Annes School, Molete Ibadan.Nigeria in 1992. She is also into Drama Minitsry and Missions she is the Director of Special Projects in World Hope Ministries ."
