Concerns are growing as legendary musician Chief Sunday Adeniyi Adegeye, popularly known as King Sunny Ade, has been reported missing by his daughter.
Damilola Esther Adeniyi-Adegeye raised the alarm via her social media, accusing his manager and stepbrother, Dayo Adegeye, of being behind the situation.
According to her, the 78-year-old icon has been out of reach for weeks, with claims that his manager has been moving him between hotels and preventing contact with his family.
She further alleged that King Sunny Ade is being forced to perform against his will.
One of her posts reads …
“SOS

THE MANAGER (DAYO.)! IS THE CULPRIT
ALONG WITH HIS MOTHER, BROTHERS (DEMOLA.) (KENNY.)
AND HIS DRIVER ADE.”

Some of his children have raised an alarm that he is being held captive by his management who are forcing him to sign up for events that he has not been honouring.
At the moment, his children who are raising this concern claim they do not know where he is and have been unable to reach him but his management claim otherwise.
However, the 78 year old King of music who has been performing for more than 60 years hasn’t been publicly seen in a while.
The children are now calling on the authorities to investigate and help find their father.”
