Lovely interview however Baba Oni did not understand that being moved from *Booking Manager to Personnel Manager* was a promotion. He thought it was a demotion. Secondly, KSA’s generosity is highlighted by the fact that he allowed Baba Oni to take all the bands earning of N84,000 in 1982 when he said his mother passed on to eternal glory. The question I asked myself was that if he had such money he could have been a millionaire. A plot of land in Ibadan was just N500 then, a house in the UK fully paid for was £21k, at that time Naira was stronger than the Pounds. So, KSA was right when he said his band members never saved for a rainy day. This guy could have easily become a millionaire, send his children to the best schools with that kind of money that he was allowed to take without repaying a dime. I’m sure if they’d ask him what he used the money for he’ll probably say it was ‘nothing’. Lastly, his story is really a life lesson to us all as the Yoruba’s will say, ‘okele gbigbe pelu itelorun’.
KSA did not sack him. He decided to sack himself probably because of his low education. He left the band because he refused to accept the offer of a personnel manager. It is a pity. I hope God will touch the heart of KSA to assist him in his old age.
Personnel Manager manages personnel i.e people/staff. That job role later became Human Resources Manager. In the recent past, it's now given appellations such as People Manager, Human Capital Manager etc.
On rejection of the post of Personnel Manager by the Baba, it has more to do with the lack of education. Education is key for success in any profession.
Baba misunderstood KSA due to animosity he has for his Boss. Since he knew how to decode KSA according to his statement here, PM would have been a good job for him. Maybe there were also issue of money, because he confessed it here himself that they do ste.l money. I think agidi Ijesa ( apologies to all my lovely Ujesha people) is disturbing this Baba. Baba KSA should please look at his side.
Ebenezer Obey head did not harbour evil because he was and still on God's destiny for him. God's ordained work for anybody on earth cannot harbour evil because God will always back it up.
The old man was making money to get dates for their customers as a booking manager of Sunny Ade organization while there's no way he can make money as a personel manager for Sunny Ade organization
If he retires at the age of 41 years old 40 years ago and he's not doing well for himself now ,that means he's not a pushful person. He's not ambitious himself
My takes What is the meaning of a jo dale ni? In what sense? Do they contribute money and things like that. In much as Agbaletu is always on KSA matters. Does insurance companies or banks can be accused if life goes sours after services? For me people don’t manage their resources well no matter what.
Illiteracy is a terrible challenge. However, the man obviously preferred the position of BM over PM because there were possibilities of getting fringes in that position than being in the human resource unit.
It was a demotion. They were just trying to be political about it. He knew it. They knew it. In a cash and carry business that the band was back then, booking manager was a pretty powerful position
Please Agbaletu , kindly explain to Mr Folorunsho Oni that personnel manager is not the same as personal manager. Personnel manager is the same as Human resource manager Which somehow puts even the booking manager under him. His illiteracy put's him out of the band not KSA.
Sorry to say this, both Sunny ade and Ebenezer Obey are just wicked individual and not God fearing human being. They should have help those guys who are with them when they formed the organization when they are in zero level.

Different people, different strokes. Late Segun Oosa, Alhaji Tiamiyu and Bob Aladeniyi shared different experiences.
AGBELETU you're competent. Please keep doing this good job.
I respect this guy named “Agbaletu” Keep it up Brother!
This baba too much 😂😂😂😂😂 very funny stuff,baba too blunt

Thanks for sharing❤
Dean of old skool and historical transparency 🎉

Agbaletu you're the best

Ebenezer Obey cannot be destroyed by anyone, because,he is specially created by God and gifted.
Ebenezer Obey head did not harbour evil because he was and still on God's destiny for him. God's ordained work for anybody on earth cannot harbour evil because God will always back it up.
kudos oga mi......ijesha man ni baba,inu won leeeee.upgrading niiiiii,
A personnel manager is the manager in charge of employment, recruitment etc
Agba, there are some issues you ought to have edited from this recording, like his family issues of his children.
We will support baba
Agbaletu everybody ndira jare.
Sunny Ade recorded lot of singles with green spot at Afican Songs.
The old man was making money to get dates for their customers as a booking manager of Sunny Ade organization while there's no way he can make money as a personel manager for Sunny Ade organization

My takes
What is the meaning of a jo dale ni? In what sense?
Do they contribute money and things like that.
In much as Agbaletu is always on KSA matters. Does insurance companies or banks can be accused if life goes sours after services?
For me people don’t manage their resources well no matter what.
There are some things that you should have left untouched, e.g, the spiritual aspects of KSA band. None of them is innocent.
Illiteracy is a terrible challenge. However, the man obviously preferred the position of BM over PM because there were possibilities of getting fringes in that position than being in the human resource unit.
For the booking manager role, baba might be getting some cut from the booking manager role .... hence why Baba left
It was a demotion. They were just trying to be political about it. He knew it. They knew it. In a cash and carry business that the band was back then, booking manager was a pretty powerful position
Interview with respect, Mr Oni probably older than your Dad.
Come on this is over 60yrs ago.
Please Agbaletu , kindly explain to Mr Folorunsho Oni that personnel manager is not the same as personal manager. Personnel manager is the same as Human resource manager Which somehow puts even the booking manager under him. His illiteracy put's him out of the band not KSA.
I didn't expect this papa to talk all secrets in public, wiwo ni enu awo wo.
When you are old you will talk same way, old people don't hide anything at old age. Go and listen to the other people interview.
😂😂😂😂
Bàbá why should you be revealing the spiritual secrets of your band?. Its unfair.
Sorry to say this, both Sunny ade and Ebenezer Obey are just wicked individual and not God fearing human being. They should have help those guys who are with them when they formed the organization when they are in zero level.
