On the new songs, Orits Williki says: “Each time l look at my archive I am stunned. I feel like we haven’t released half of what Jah has deposited inside of me, trust me. You know I’m a multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer so I often produce myself and others with regards to music. I have a large number of unreleased materials that I would be happy to push out as Jah permits. It’s some of my best works yet.”
Williki will also be bestowing legendary awards on 12 notable musicians in Nigeria including Bongos Ikue, King Sunny Ade, Ebenezer Obey, Alhaji Kollington, Onyeka Onwenu, Bright Chimezie, Sir Shina Peters, Alhaja Salawa Abeni, Dr. Tee Mac lseli, Emma Ogosi, and Stella Monye.
