Latoya, an Africa-American
narrated hoe she met her hubby: ‘’ Destiny cannot be changed, even though it
could be altered a little bit. God has his own way of doing things. We met at
Pa. Ambrose Oladipo Campbell’s house. I met him when I was 17, shortly after
the death of my father in Los Angeles, California. I would come to his house
and he’d talk to me about music and Nigeria’’
Aduke, who said that she drew her
musical influences his my late father then, said she used to think she was
Miriam Makeba, even though she was born in America
.’’ The first genre of music that I was exposed to was African music and
I recall that we would tie ‘gele’, which we called turbans back then, and
danced. I learnt music by listening. These were my influences. My mum supported
me tremendously and when I started working with O.J, she said my late mum would
be really proud of Me.’ she said.
Latoya who described herself as a dancer said ’’ music also helps to keep our relationship
aglow. We love each other. I could go on stage and dance and he can be rest
assured that I am his woman, just doing my job as a dancer.’’
Latoya is a complete wife. a musician, a dancer, and probably one of the
best professional dancer in Nigeria...we celebrate you.
