Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey
Career
Ebenezer's professional career began with his move to Lagos in the mid1950s after being tutored under the Fatai Rolling-Dollar's band. Known for modernizing the sound of Juju by adding the funkiness of Yoruba drumming, more Western-style guitars and drum-kits, and adding multiple talking drums which was unlike what every other Juju musician was doing at the time.
In 1964, he formed his own band, The International Brothers which later metamorphosed into Inter-Reformers in the early-1970s, with a long list of Juju album hits under the West African Decca musical label, they excelled in praise singing for rich Nigerian socialites and business tycoons. They had hit singles, 'Ewa Wowun Ojumi Ri' and 'Olomi Gbo Temi (My Dearest Wife Listen to Me)' which was his debut single. In 1968, he released 'Omo wan n’re soja a fe sokun' which means 'We are crying because our sons are going to war' in a bid to console families whose sons were being conscripted into the army following the Biafran war.
In 1980, Obey enjoyed international acclaim with 'Current Affairs' and in the 1990s, retired into the Nigerian gospel music ministry.
Since his emergence into the music industry, he has released over hundred albums till date.
He formed the Ebenezer Obey Music Foundation Scholarship Scheme (EOMFSS) which was designed to grant scholarship awards to deserving indigenes and music students in various Tertiary institutions. He was the General Overseer of Decross International Ministries.

I am Igbo, since i was a kid my dad has been playing Mr Ebenezer songs, i was very tender then but i remember things a lot,i grew up looking for this songs and since 2 years back i started hearing his rythm in my head, I can't sing any but when i go to sleep they sing the song to me but when i start asking the name of the artist i wake up from the dream. for a long time i have been enjoying the Rythm in my head with no one to understand what an actually singing when i try to sing ut out so people could help me with the name of yhe artist. but just now i found a comic video playing this man's song and i asked about the artist and someone told me now i found him. only the lord knows happy I am to find this artist.(•‿•)
