Concern is growing as music legend Chief Sunday Adeniyi Adegeye, also known as King Sunny Ade, has been reported missing by his daughter.
Damilola Esther Adeniyi-Adegeye took to social media to express her worries, pointing the blame at his manager and stepbrother, Dayo Adegeye.
According to Damilola, the 78-year-old musician has been unreachable for weeks, with his manager allegedly moving him between hotels and preventing him from contacting his family. She suspects that he may be forced to perform against his will.
One of her posts reads …
“SOS
KING SUNNY ADE! HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED!!
SOS
THE MANAGER (DAYO.)! IS THE CULPRIT
ALONG WITH HIS MOTHER, BROTHERS (DEMOLA.) (KENNY.)
AND HIS DRIVER ADE.”

@TheKayodeBadmus said: “This is not a good one, absolutely not a good news. There has been growing concern about King Sunny Ade and his whereabouts. 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.”
