Tony Tetuila is no stranger to music circles as the veteran singer is one of the pioneers of the profitable music that we have currently.
Tony Tetuila whose real name is Anthony Olanrewaju Awotoye was a part of the music group, Remedies that comprised two other big faces, Eedris Abdulkareem and Eddy Montana.
At the height of his musical reign, Tony Tetuila shelled out hit songs like “Fefe na Efe”, “My Car“, “Omode Meta“, “Iseju Akan“, “Ikokuko“, “Yes O“, “Omo Pupa“, “E Wa Bami Jo” and dropped albums like “E Go Better“, “Morning Time”, and “My Car“.
In 2014, the Oro-born artist joined the league of entertainers venturing into politics after he contested for the House of Assembly seat in Kwara state. He ran unsuccessfully though on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
It will be recalled that entertainers like 9ice contested in the last Nigerian election unsuccessfully, while two actors contested as well with only one of them winning.
We commiserate with Tony Tetuila at this trying time and wish him the fortitude to bear the loss of his mother.
