Like a river that does not forget its source, Gospel-juju singer, Abel Dosunmu, aka Mega 99, has released two new albums. Mega 99 is of the Celestial creed the way Ovation publisher, Dele Momodu, is with Chrubim and Seraphim. The first, Oluwajekayemo (God, let the world know), comes in the artiste’s annual supplication series while the second is to mark the 70th anniversary of the Celestial Church of God. He explains, “I thank God that as big the Celestial church is, members rate me high within and outside Nigeria. So, it will be painful thing, if for any reason, I am unable to honour the church with the album.” He explains that apart from using the work to congratulate members, he also sermonises in terms of reminding listeners about what God expects of man. “I believe that we should always use every opportunity to draw people to God. The album also has songs of thanksgiving. God has been very faithful to us. So, we have to thank Him. What I also consider important is my desire to have love and unity reign in the Celestial church. I try to remind our people that the founder of the church, Pastor Oshofa, did his best in growing it. It is left for us to come together to ensure its development.” Oluwajekayemo is coming after Fear Not, High Praise and Ogo Mi, with Mega 99 saying it is purely a song of praise and prayers. “I have the talent to compose both juju and gospel songs. That is the essence of my being a gospel-juju act. But in the Supplication series, all we do is what I will call undiluted gospel. We lead listeners to communicate with God, in an atmosphere devoid of noise and the usual swag.”
