King Sunny Ade Silences Disappearance Rumors With Stunning Akure Performance

Legendary Nigerian Juju musician King Sunny Ade (KSA) has silenced rumors about his well-being after a viral video showed him delivering an energetic live performance at a social event.

On Thursday, May 1, 2025, the 77-year-old Grammy-nominated icon lit up a burial ceremony in Akure, Ondo State, thrilling guests with his signature Yoruba classics. Dressed in a sleek blue suit and backed by his seasoned band, KSA showcased his timeless charm and stage mastery, proving he has lost none of his musical magic.

This joyful appearance came just days after social media was rattled by a woman’s viral post—claiming to be one of his daughters—alleging that the Juju legend had gone missing and was being “adopted” by unknown individuals.

In response, KSA’s media team had quickly reassured the public that the music star was safe and well. Still, it was the recent performance video that truly eased fan concerns, spreading relief and celebration across social media.
