I am a Ghanaian stayed in Nigeria between the years of 80 and 83 as a shoe shine boy (sobatta) anytime I hear chief Ebenezer Obey song I just put down my box and listen with joy,up to now I am in love of it.
Reading through the comments I came away with the thought that once in this country tribe was secondary to our basic humanity. We were one in music, in national aspirations and goodwill to one another. Can’t we have that nation back? I am Yoruba, but the music that turned my life around permanently and irreversibly was the Voice of Cross by brother Lazarus and Emmanuel, Igbos. My cousin bought the album in Aba while coming from Calabar where his parents were living and presented it to me as Christmas gift. That was 1984. I’m not sure how many albums alter the course of people’s lives the way this album altered mine. Fundamentally we’re same people under God with a mandate to build a nation that will be the pride of Africa and the black race everywhere. We have the education, native intelligence, intellectual drive, energy, resources and manpower to do this. May the Lord restore us again to our first love.
The people who killed that Nigeria are those who would like to lay claim to other people's region, while not even allowing any reciprocity in their region. These talk about One-Nigeria, but it is all talk. It is only one Nigeria when they're buying up and laying claims to other people's land. Nigeria can NEVER be one as long as we have that thinking, attitude, and behavior.
I'm Hausa and gew up listening to this yoruba Baba. There's no Nigerian music we didn't listen to growing up. Proudly Nigerian 🇳🇬🇳🇬 through n through the 🔥🔥🔥🔥 This guy was not limited by tribe. Everyone listen to Baba
The Fulani aka desert men are not israelite, They're strangers to we in the so called nigeria including the tares among us. We're mix with strangers. All skin folk aint kin folk. The Fulani are hamite lineage aka canaanite seeds .
@@evansevans8022 Say it loud beloveth, The Fulani aka desert men are hamite lineage, They're not our people Including the tares among us. All skin folk aint kin folk.
My amiable late Dad fondly called folks in our village back in the old good days by the name Ebenezer as " Ebenezer Obey". Thus in reverence to the great Obey, we grew up calling anyone bearing the name Ebenezer as Obey in our locality; Ebonyi State
Am Nigerian🇳🇬, born in togoland🇹🇬 and grew up there. In those days, I was tired listen to it.my father used to play it every morning. But now that I grow up and understand life I enjoy it.
Greatest chief Obey When l met my husband in the 70's We still together with the old gadgets we love you hada friend who translated to our language to us We are Ghanaians
Hello. I am a white man. I am 58. I grew up in England but my parents are from Ireland. I don't believe in God but I try to believe in people. Your tribe, your skin, your language, your passport, your God... it makes no difference to me. One world, one people. But whenever I meet a Nigerian I always tell them how much I love the music of the Chief Commander. Sometimes I tell people who aren't from Nigeria about him too. If I can listen to this man sing and play his guitar every day I can smile.
My friend Emeka who owns an electronic shop back in the days at the post office market in Maiduguri when Borno was home of peace, he loves to listen to this song early mornings lol.. missed him and missed Naija.
Strange reading the comments. people from Ghana, ibo, Hausa, Edo, etc speaking highly of Obeys music and him as a man... how i wish we have him as president of glue together that sense of pride we once have as a nation, rather than the terrorists, dividers and evil doers we have in power now
My father made love Ebenezer obey music with passion since when I was young and his always ever green. If you are with me in 2021 pls let us gather here
My dad was an Urhobo, but all Ebenezer Obey album. This is one of my favourite. Missing my parents so much. We always enjoyed this together. God bless you baba.
As an Igbo man, I don't understand Yoruba language but the rythym of this song makes great sense to me. Such wisdom is rare to find in the foolishness of today's musicians you sing a lot of rubbish and still make money out of it.
The great grandfather of juju music in the whole world 🌎 of Yoruba Nation. May God almighty continue to keep you alive in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen. EVERGREEN 🌲
I am glad this has exceeded one million viewers. Awesome reminder of by-gone safe Nigeria where everyone was a family without the awful divide, poverty of the mind and wickedness of Nigeria and some Nigerians today. Grass is not greener on the other side and one day the offspring of our looters will not taste the goodness destined for Nigeria. Amen
2021, who's here? So many memories with the songs. My father passed in 2020. He used to play these songs on the turntable. We never appreciated them then now we understand better. Thank you Pa Ebenezer for making such golden music.
I listened to this song as I sat outside looking at elderly men enjoying their beer in the beer parlor shop in our house waiting for my mum return from the hawking of her wares Seeing her return gives me the happiest feelings on earth feeling same way rightnow😀
I am an Okoro (Omo Igbo) but in your music there is no boundary - one is simply omo eko. You bring back my early days in Lagos - the days of Bar Beach shows by NTV at Federal Palace. Your voice is a gift to the world.
Joseph Umesi Vtrip Health Services, Inc. For you to acknowledged this beautiful record and baba obey creativity as an artist you are part of the family regardless of our ethnic differences
Chief Ebenezer Obey Omo Fabiyi,one of the real preacher,singer and elder when it come to music. Baba ki Oluwa je ki e pe fun wa. Ameen. Your music always a lecture and nassiya.
When I was growing up in the 70s my dad will play his turn table record player with songs especially in the likes of Obey. We always murmured to ourselves wondering what our father was listening to. Fast forward to now...I can't believe Obey music is what I listen to on occasions. What baffles me is the fact that I know his songs word to word! Obviously daddy wasn't the only one resonating with the music then. Thank you sir for sharing your classical talent with us!
This is by far my favorite Obey song and probably among my best 10 songs of all time. I love Obey, even more as a child. I grew up to this song as a boy from Edo state and instantly felt a bond inside each time I heard the music play. It's still fresh on my mind how I would stand still to listen to the entire song on my way before continuing on any errand for my dad. In those days, what a bright moment it was to sit around my Dad while he interprets the meaning of this and many of Obey;s songs. Truly a legend! When they say, "good old days", this is what they mean! Thank God for Obey!!
Extraordinary music, I am not a Yoruba man, but this music transcends Tribe. May God Blessed Ebenezer Obey and my Late Father for exposing us as kids to this wonderful Timeless work.
Well said, I only learnt the words of this and his other songs after relocating to Naija with my parents in the 70s as a teenager and even if I didn't know the words, his voice and the music always captivates the listener ❤❤
This is one of my best songs of all times, I listen to it on repeat at work and during my commute to and from work. Yet, I can hardly understand a word of what he is saying. Truly classic, helps keep the good memories of Nigeria fresh on my mind. Thank you Ebenezer Obey.
I vividly remember when this piece came out.I used to play this album in my living room then .I remembered there was this my neighbor who wasn't in good time with me, out of envey.So early in the morning I'll just throw this album on fire on a very classic machine J V C.then.Oh!Oh!! I wish we can role back those happy days again.God bless Commander Obey.Now a man of God ; Pastor.
Waoh this reminds me my days of growing up in Ibadan in 80s. Sir Obey music made my days those days as a growing kid in Ibadan, the good days of Nigeria, when there is less hate amongst Nigerians of different ethnic group.
PA EBENEZER OBEY THE "MUSIC MAESTRO OF THE NIGERIA NATION!!!! YOU ARE EVERGREEN!!! SIMPLY THE BEST!!!! MAY THE GOOD LORD ALMIGHTY CONTINUE TO BLESS YOUR BEAUTIFUL LIFE, AMEEEEN!!
I can and will not getting tired of listening to Chief Ebenezer Obey songs. They are full of wisdom. May God grant you health and thank you for providing so many great songs.
Baba Obey used his songs to destroy tribalism in Nigeria. I'm an Igbo man but Ebenezer Obey's albums littered our music cabinet in my house, those days. My Dad got us all hooked to him. Sadly, they dont make artists like him anymore.
What now happened? Did you expect him to sing tribal hatred. Nigerians still had some food so fight never run red. But give him he was a star. But my greatest Salut is him genuinely becoming a born again follower of Jesus Christ. God is great. These songs minister to the flesh so let us follow the gifted man of songs. Glorybto God for his life.
We will rock this till the end of time. What are you listening to nowadays?, music that does not make sense, exposure to bad things, unimaginable things one can. never thought of, is that one you listen to these days that you call music?, may be you don't have people of the 60s, 70s, even 80s that is why you are asking who still listens to this at this time. This worth listening to pls. It has really made my day.
How happy I am to find this music here... I remembered jamming it on our turntable, my childhood days were beautiful and memorable growing up hearing songs of Ebenezer Obey.(my dad's favorite artist) way back.. 💃💃💃💃💃 Sounds so good and pleasing even in 2021. (Evergreen)😊😘😍
I'm from Rep. Of Benin. I have been grew up with Obey's music bcos He was my father's best musician. RIP Daddy and thank you, cos you did my education through a good music. I hope long live to the big Ebenezer
Grew up listening and dancing to this music. The key word "ota mi deyin Leyin mi", is so unfortunately representative of partly today Nigeria. May our enemies not consume us!
I am an addicted big fan of the great Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey Fabiyi. I grew up as a child listening to him and I am so privileged to experience his evergreen songs!!
Just done my selection of baba of the classics of classics cruising in my car M25...Memories reminds of the mid 70's my dad picking us in Datsun car playing all these gems i'm revisiting thanks to my playlist...Over 100 songs on Obey.
Commander's song made me fall in love with anything Yoruba right from childhood. Desired to marry them then😂😂, just to be listening to baba and other good highlife like sir Sunny Ade. Baba I love you, you made my childhood memorable.
Cue here if you are listening to this music in 2021. God bless Daddy Ebenezer Obey. My late parents music and it just bring me back to my childhood days.
Evangelist Ebenezer Remilekun Aremu Obey-Fabiyi's songs and lyrics have been my soul food since my childhood in Nigeria. Outside the shores of our dear nation, inside my lonely and extremely cold room at the North-West University, Mafikeng, South Africa, Baba Obey keeps me warm and connected with home with his melodies on-line. God will continue to bless you sir! -Adewole Adeleke.
Chief Ebenezer Obey Fabiyi's songs have brought me up morally and psychologically from my days as a toddler until now. I have never come across any other musician that has impressed my imaginations like Obey Commander has done either local or foreign. He is indeed a God-sent. I pray to God to grant him long life and good health.
I grew up with Chief Ebenezer Obey’s music. He was the best musician of his time; that is my deduction from his music. He catered to individual and group needs. He was not bias! I am his number 1 fan. I do enjoy his songs up till now. Anyone can search them online. As a Christian, he was exemplary. Words of his music are soothing, true to the core and prayerful. I thank God For Haven given Chief Ebenezer Obey the talent to reach so many people positively through his songs. God bless you. Amen🙏🏾
AM PROUD TO BE YORUBA BUT THE PROBLEM IS WITHIN , WHEN IBO MAN THAT DID NOT UNDERSTAND STILL SHOW THE APPRECIATION TO OUR MUSIC AND 848 PEOPLE YORUBA WHO FULLY UNDERSTAND THIS WONDERFULLY MUSIC DISLIKE IT...SURELY THERE ENEMY IS FOLLOW THEM.OLATOKUNBO DARAMOLA MAY GOD CONTINUE BLESS U.....
Good day everyone everything said about this great and iconic artist. Am from Delta state but born& bred in Lagos. What's amazing about his music is whatever your situation in life you'll definitely find an album from obey's collection that will be uplifting from his composition & lyrics. Furthermore when am listening to his music it reminds me of the good old days in Lagos not what it is today.
Sunny Ade is very good. I love Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey's music more. For me Chief Ebenezer's music is richer and deeper. I grew up with his music as a teenager in Nigeria. It penetrates my soul!
I love my growing up in Lagos. listening to your music brings tears to my eyes as I miss my dad, who plays these lovely music at home for the family's enjoyment. Thank you, Ebenezer Obey, you're indeed a rare gift to the world
I am who i am today listening to this song....Kudos to all Nigeria icons in music...KSA,CRIST ESSIEN IGBOKWE,EDNA OGHOLI,OYENKA OWENU,OBEY AND PPP...LOVE 💘 THEM ALL
Baba God bless you .I love you from my infant the multitude of angels will give you more inspiration to give us inspiring music. God bless you daddy. Long life and prosperity.
Same here Loving it...am igbo born in Onitsha moved to Lagos 1992 when I was 13 years old to serve my Oga... grew up in the Mushin area I have a very good memory growing up in the Mushin area Thou I now live in Manchester with my kids Part of me is loaded with Yoruba culture especially the music and food
iI was my fathers DJ setting and operating the turn table ,speakers and amplifier any time there was any party or ocassion in the late 70s,80s and 90s.His favourite Obey amongst host of others: Haruna ishola,IK dairo,YK Ajao,Admiral Dele Abiodun,Kayode Fashola,Sunny Ade,Orlando
Ever green Ebenezer obey long may u live .. anytime I feel sad ..I just play ur song and I just feel better ..may God bless you more..in good health ..I will ever remain ur #1fans ..all the way from Aachen Germany 🇩🇪 🇩🇪
Baba miliki doesn't have best track because all his records is epic and a vital message to mankind, not minding I don't understand the language lyrics but Obey's music is my favorite when it comes to display in grand style; Commander fabiyi is naturally gifted I believe he'll transfer all the brain to Tolu Obey.. Long live legendary✊
This is a Nigerian classic, as enjoyable today as it was almost 5 decades ago. One needs not be Yoruba or understand Yoruba language to enjoy this beauty. Oh my gosh, it reminds me of Kaduna of my childhood in the 1970s.
I have been listening to this great song since I was a boy but I never get tired of listening to it. I feel like I am in the 1970s/80s as I listen now. What a nostalgia for when Nigeria was really a place for human beings. Can we ever get back that Nigeria in my lifetime?
Your music is symbolic! Whenever I listen to Chief Ebenezer Obey's music, it reminds me of those good days with my Late Dad, the unrepentant fan of Ebenezer Obey. Chief Ebenezer Obey is a bundle of blessing to this world!
I remember how my father used to bath me and my siblings with this song in the morning and at night. He just like Obey like sokomilo! More life to you sir, your songs are truly evergreen and sunshine to everyone!
Nostalgia galore...you are indeed the unrivalled Chief Commander of your domain sir. My desire is to at least once be blessed with the privilege of seeing you live. Continued strength, peace, health and grace to you.
I am a Ghanaian stayed in Nigeria between the years of 80 and 83 as a shoe shine boy (sobatta) anytime I hear chief Ebenezer Obey song I just put down my box and listen with joy,up to now I am in love of it.
God almighty bless you Robert you have no hate in you 🙏 ❤️ good music no hiding place
All the Yorubas and Ibos listening to Baba Obey in 2021 give a thumbs up. We be one Naija no matter how much politians wan divide us.
God bless you my brother.
i am igbo man i grow up listening to this great legend. my late father don't joke with his song back then in Enugu State

Not limited to any tribe, and most certainly not limited to Nigeria either.

Evangelist Ebenezer Remilekun Aremu Obey-Fabiyi's songs and lyrics have been my soul food since my childhood in Nigeria. Outside the shores of our dear nation, inside my lonely and extremely cold room at the North-West University, Mafikeng, South Africa, Baba Obey keeps me warm and connected with home with his melodies on-line. God will continue to bless you sir! -Adewole Adeleke.
indeed Obey Fabiyi is God sent musician to our generation of this time.
Chief Ebenezer Obey Fabiyi's songs have brought me up morally and psychologically from my days as a toddler until now. I have never come across any other musician that has impressed my imaginations like Obey Commander has done either local or foreign. He is indeed a God-sent. I pray to God to grant him long life and good health.

Am from anambra state i too much love this great man, his music instrument is different from other Yoruba people. Very cool.
I grew up with Chief Ebenezer Obey’s music. He was the best musician of his time; that is my deduction from his music. He catered to individual and group needs. He was not bias! I am his number 1 fan. I do enjoy his songs up till now. Anyone can search them online. As a Christian, he was exemplary. Words of his music are soothing, true to the core and prayerful. I thank God For Haven given Chief Ebenezer Obey the talent to reach so many people positively through his songs. God bless you. Amen🙏🏾

Good day everyone everything said about this great and iconic artist. Am from Delta state but born& bred in Lagos. What's amazing about his music is whatever your situation in life you'll definitely find an album from obey's collection that will be uplifting from his composition & lyrics. Furthermore when am listening to his music it reminds me of the good old days in Lagos not what it is today.

Sunny Ade is very good. I love Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey's music more. For me Chief Ebenezer's music is richer and deeper. I grew up with his music as a teenager in Nigeria. It penetrates my soul!
I love my growing up in Lagos. listening to your music brings tears to my eyes as I miss my dad, who plays these lovely music at home for the family's enjoyment. Thank you, Ebenezer Obey, you're indeed a rare gift to the world

Baba miliki doesn't have best track because all his records is epic and a vital message to mankind, not minding I don't understand the language lyrics but Obey's music is my favorite when it comes to display in grand style; Commander fabiyi is naturally gifted I believe he'll transfer all the brain to Tolu Obey.. Long live legendary✊
Evergreen music anytime any day. We thank God for your life Chief Commander. Epe fun wa.
This is a Nigerian classic, as enjoyable today as it was almost 5 decades ago. One needs not be Yoruba or understand Yoruba language to enjoy this beauty. Oh my gosh, it reminds me of Kaduna of my childhood in the 1970s.
Baba your music bring unity to Nigeria. With great wisdom.
An Icon. Met him last year at the perennial Island club end of year party. The voice remains the same after all this years. what a great man.
C'est un monument de la musique africaine ses albums nous enseigne beaucoup
I have been listening to this great song since I was a boy but I never get tired of listening to it. I feel like I am in the 1970s/80s as I listen now. What a nostalgia for when Nigeria was really a place for human beings. Can we ever get back that Nigeria in my lifetime?
Zaramoku that was deep
Thank you for all the Godly music, instructive. Educative, instructive, thank you again, appreciate you, God bless & long life sir
So sad that Nigeria is no more 🥺🥺🥺
I'm so glad to to be a life to day all glory be to God almighty, I grew up in lagos.
Another legend when music was a sermon.
The nostalgia of this song brings tears to my eyes
There is talent and there is God given talent
Ebenezer Obey is one of the musicians that brings out the beauty of Yoruba music
ijanboh idow
AINT DAT DA TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH - NOTHING BUT DA TRUTH!!!
Olaotan olakunseyin oo💃🏽.. 2020 a different kinda year globally but Chief commander keeping the mood locked....
Your music is symbolic! Whenever I listen to Chief Ebenezer Obey's music, it reminds me of those good days with my Late Dad, the unrepentant fan of Ebenezer Obey. Chief Ebenezer Obey is a bundle of blessing to this world!
I remember how my father used to bath me and my siblings with this song in the morning and at night. He just like Obey like sokomilo! More life to you sir, your songs are truly evergreen and sunshine to everyone!
Obey baba. These are everlasting songs that I have listened to all my life yet not tired of them. God bless you Obey
C'est l'une des oeuvres d'art du Grand Ebenezer. Je suis ivoirien mais je n'écoute que sa musique. Elle est si douce et relaxante.
Nostalgia galore...you are indeed the unrivalled Chief Commander of your domain sir. My desire is to at least once be blessed with the privilege of seeing you live. Continued strength, peace, health and grace to you.
In my opinion-this was Chief Ebenezer Obey greatest hit
