About me / Bio:
Ayinla Omowura was a Nigerian Apala musician who was popular in the 1970s. He started his musical career as an apprentice of Olalomi, an Apala variant, and later formed his own band called Ayinla Omowura and His Apala Group. He was known for his social commentary, criticism, and humour in his songs. He often feuded with other musicians and had a quick temper. He was also a flamboyant dresser and a devout Muslim. He performed the Hajj in 1975 and adopted the title Alhaji. He died in 1980 after he was stabbed by his band manager during a bar fight. He left behind a legacy of over 20 albums and a cult following among the Yoruba people.
