TVC E — The name Sir Shina Peters cannot be forgotten in a hurry, if not for his Afro Juju creation, his energetic dance steps still leave many to wonder.
His music evoked memories of the 80s, same for his energetic dance which left many wondering how he was able to maintain such vigour over the years. But the Afro Juju creator, Shina Peters, has a ready-made answer – he can never be too old for the genre of music he originated.
SSP as he is fondly referred to declared this at the much publicised Love Rendezvous event, hosted by Lagos Airport Hotel, to celebrate this year’s valentine season.
Ostensibly, responding to informal questions from the audience and especially, from a popular Nollywood actor who was also the MC of the night, Yomi Fash-Lanso, Shina Peters said his age can never stop him from the way he played the music several years ago.
“My age has nothing to do with the way I dance, it is in me, I can never stop doing it. I may be getting old by age but I am still young at heart. Afro Juju is what I initiated; it comprises high tempo music with rigorous dancing step and that is the way I will continue to dance it my age notwithstanding” he said.
As the veteran musician rendered some of the crowd’s favourite songs from the albums he released in his heydays, fun seekers, mostly couples, continued to ask for more.
The event also included a comedy dinner with GbengaAdeyinka which was another spectacular experience.
