Crying More Than The Bereaved; Baba Spirit Death Which Resulted In The Exchange Of Blows
The death can’t talk. Yes! Indeed the late Francis Yaw Ofori affectionately called, Baba Spirit untimely death, is causing disaffection amongst some “loyal” friends, “avowed sympathisers” and “lovely”family members. He was such a handsome black guy with white eyes
I can bet my last pesewa that, some of the family members and sympathizers shedding crocodile 🐊 tears, never paid attention to him while he was alive likewise, some industry friends.
I have known Baba Spirit for almost 24 years when he decided to do music after school. He will come to my studio crack jokes and begin to talk like a person from the northern part of the country trying to speak the Akan language. I encouraged him to develop that talent and the rest is history.
Prior to his demise, he granted various interviews and confided in some of us about, his health condition attributing some to spiritual forces in the creative industry trying to eliminate him. He had complained to me about his constant anemic condition and the bodily pains he encounters. Was he taking his medications regularly? There is juju but, it has its limitations.
Personally, I am not of the view that, someone used juju to kill him but, have the deepest conviction about certain medical history he revealed to me personally based on our relationship which I will never put out in the public domain. Waiting for the autopsy report if any. Hmmm.
Let’s put aside the bickering going on between the family, Big Akwess, Quappiah Quappiah and others and give our brother a befitting funeral observation and burial. Indeed, dead men don’t talk. Kudos to those who were with him on the last days of his journey on this earth.

Omar B Homage: Revenue from my rendition will go to his family – Kuami Eugene
Ghana’s finest, Kuami Eugene, has paid homage to late Togolese music legend Omar B, known in private life as Ahiangban Omar.
Kuami Eugene, in paying homage to the fallen legend, did a rendition of Omar B’s classic hit song, “Awoo Mawugné.”
According to Kuami Eugene, a friend introduced Omar B’s songs to him, due to their creative semblance of ability to write, sing and produce.
Against this backdrop, Kuami Eugene began to enquire about Omar B and realised he died at a point his career was thriving leaving behind a young family.
Consequently, Kuami Eugene decided to go ahead with a rendition of his “Awoo mawugné” song, which has been on his heart and donate the revenue accrued to Omar B’s family.
“After I got the translation of the song from some friends, I realised he had put together some powerful lyrics, so I decided to do a rendition in his honour,” he said.
The Rockstar further revealed that, “This is not for profit. It’s purely out of love and respect. I have no intention of exploiting this work. All revenues generated from this upload will go directly to Omar B’s family.”
For this reason, it is Kuami Eugene’s prayer that the song generates a lot of views and money for the family of the late Omar B.
Due to his ingenuity coupled with his meteoric rise, Omar B became a role model and an inspiration to Togo’s young talents.
While a third album, dubbed ‘Me, Myself and I’, was released in 2019, Omar B died suddenly at the age of 35 on February 20, 2020, following a heart attack.
