Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) 2023 Presidential candidate, has expressed appreciation to popular Nigerian skit maker, Brain Jotter, following the demise of veteran highlife musician Mike Ejeagha.
In 2024, the veteran musician, renowned for his 1983 hit track ‘Ka Esi Le Onye Isi Oche’, experienced a resurgence in popularity after Brain Jotter, used the song for his viral dance moves.
The dance involves two or more people facing opposite directions, walking towards each other, performing a humorous leg dance, and then one chases the other while the chorus ‘Gwo Gwo Gwo Ngwo’ plays in the background.
Reacting to the demise, Atiku in a post via 𝕏 on Saturday wrote: “It is heartwarming to note that thanks to Brain Jotter, highlife maestro Mike Ejeagha had his ‘Gwo gwo gwo ngwo’ encore dance before the curtain was drawn. Rest in music, Gentleman Mike Ejeagha.”
