He said Fasasi’s demise was painful and a great loss to the deceased family, Nigerian music industry and the country as a whole. He, however, urged the deceased’s family, friends, associates, fans and the entertainment practitioners to take the death of Sound Sultan as an act of God. ”Sound Sultan’s death is painful. He was a bundle of talent who used his God-given gift to advance the course of mankind. His music, artistry and interest in sports were all donated at every point for the development of humanity. ”He was a celebrated singer, comedian, rapper, songwriter and actor during his lifetime,” he said.
