Folakemi Falade, an up and coming gospel music sensation, on Thursday revealed how she was motivated to become a gospel singer.

Falade, also  disclosed that her talent and gift to sing is inborn, adding that her father, is a choir master/organist in Anglican Church.

“Actually, I can say I was born with music blood because my father (even at 85）is still a choir master/organist in Anglican church. I also grew up to be a member of choir in Anglican church throughout my childhood and ever since I got married”, she said.

Falade further explained that ultimately, she received the divine vision of singing God’s praises in a covenantal way.

The Ile-Ife born gospel act, however said that her adventure in music industry has brought some challenges on her path, though surmountable.

“Being a starter, I cannot say I have been faced by any significant challenge other than the stress of having to deliver my duty as a wife，a  civil servant coupled with creating time for this divine assignment

Acknowledging the support of her husband, Oluwagbemiga Falade, a Deacon in the Redeemed Christian Church of God, in her music career, Folakemi said the co-operation and understanding of her hubby contributed greatly to the successful production of her new Song.

Speaking on her new vinyl titled “Baba Yanmife” which will be launched on Saturday in Ibadan, Oyo state capital, Mrs Falade said the album contains her great testimony.

According to her “Baba Yanmife’ cuts across every area of her life, adding “Truly, the Lord has been so good to me, His love for me is so thick that I can feel and touch”.

Mega Icon Magazine reliably gathered that Dare Melody left Ibadan, the Oyo State Capital where he had successful outings at Celestial Church, Goshenland Parish and the New Seraph All White Concert.

The gospel artist explained, “the journey was smooth until around 4.15am when mh band’s vehicles were moving in convoy until they sighted the traffic at Mowe. As it became imperative, the vehicles’ normal speeds were reduced to barest minimum.

“At this point, I suddenly heard a loud, nasty noise, a 40 feet heavily loaded truck struggled with brake failure and hit my car from the rear.

“I’m simply bereft of words to explain how it happened, but it was in the wee hours of Saturday November 21, 2020.

“My band members and I left for Lagos from Ibadan where we just had successful outings at Celestial Church, Goshenland Parish and the New Seraph All White Concert”.

He narrated further, “ the situation left me unconscious, for sometime I never knew what happened and where I was. My car had been tumbled and squeezed.

“I later heard voices, particularly the ones shouting he’s our Chairman. That must be voices of my band members.

Still trapped in an obnoxious enclosure, Dare Melody added  that certain negative thoughts ran across his mind until rescue came from passersby who joined his band members to prise open one of the doors and pulled out the four of them in his car.

“It was like watching a movie with lots of stunts. We were all healthy, safe but this story is not sound.

“It was only one of the truck boys that fell off It, during the accident that got severely injured.

“Everyone at the scene blamed and even threatened to beat up the truck driver, claiming that truck drivers had caused deaths serially on that road, but for quick intervention of officers from Mowe Police station”.

Presently, the singer and music producer iis with grateful heart to God who spared his and others’ lives, especially during the dreaded “ember months.

Both his vehicle and the truck were taken to the Mowe Police station.

“Our plan was to get to Lagos early on that Saturday, settle at a relaxation apartment in Ilupeju before moving to Baptist Academy, Obanikoro where we later performed at a wedding ceremony.

“I give God the glory that I’m alive to tell this agonising tale. However, I passionately appeal to the government to quickly fix this road and ensure that its agencies thoroughly examine worthiness of vehicles on our roads. We have had enough of avoidable road accidents, our lives matter, please”, he submitted.

The growing list of failed marriages in the Nigeria Entertainment Industry calls for redress as this development continue to increase, some of them have remained eligible spinsters and Bachelors, but this ugly act is more rampant among the female celebrities that suppose to be a good example to house wives, some of who pride them as role models. The list of celebrities in this category is endless and inexhaustible.

Mega Icon Magazine took up a gospel singer who has recorded tremendous success in her career, Evangelist Rachael Olubukola Akinade popularly known as “Senwele Jesu” on this ugly development.

Akinade expressed her dissatisfaction on this social malady which has turned to a social crisis especially among female Artistes.

In an encounter with Mega Icon Magazine, she said “the Bible even confirmed it that whoever find a wife, finds a good thing and obtain favour from the Lord, so being a celebrity or star does not give the chance or permission to be the lord over our husbands. The Lord has made our Men our heads, no matter whom we are as a celebrity or icon, we need to see our husbands as our heads, so inability to submit to their orders,  accord them respect and see them as our tin god is one of the causes of these failed marriages”, she stated confidently.

The gospel music icon further revealed that most of these female celebrities see themselves on top of the World, believing that, they have attained the peak and above control.

“If their husband says, this is how I want it to be, they find it difficult to bend to their hubby’s wish and there is no man, no matter how gentle he is, if a woman tries to put on her ego, men would definitely reacts”, she reiterated.

Stressing further, she counseled that men must also honour their wives as respect is reciprocal, they should also see the female folks as a weaker vessels and handle them with great care while the celebrities should also pay back these kind gestures.

Evangelist  Akinade did not fail to appeal to celebrities to forget about their stardom, fame and whom they are when it comes to their homes, because without having a good home, even if, they progress in their careers, the respect would not be there.

While advising them not to compete but be submissive to their hubbies at least for a moment and make their opinion known in a polite way, since there is no perfect marriage, it is full of ups and downs, so we need to manage each other, she advised.
