When the history of Fuji Music will be written in Nigeria his name must hold prominence. Ayuba is not the run of the mill kind of Fuji musician you see everyday rather his rarity makes him special.
Scandal Free, Urbane , Polished, Intelligent and Good business acumen are words that best qualifies this Fuji Artiste.
Ayuba has been singing since childhood. He released the song Bubble and Mr Johnson in 1991 and 1992 under Sony music and the songs became instant hits.
Ayuba termed his kind of Fuji music BONSUE . While reminiscing on how the word Bonsue was created he said it is a name his mother use in making jest of him every time she sends him on an errand and he forgets what he ought to buy or do. She will say Bo, Bo, Bo, Bonsue. Just to keep the memory of that Yabbis Ayuba decided then to brand his Fuji BONSUE.
Because Ayuba has been on active music stage since over 40 years a lot of people think he is well over 60 . Little did they know that his consistency has kept him on till date.
While the Fuji music brand keep growing in leaps and bounds thanks to icons like Kwam 1, Sefiu Alao, Kollington Ayinla, Obesere, Pasuma, etc Ayuba and some of his other contemporaries have also been trying collaboration with different hip hop acts. For Ayuba he sees it as a movement hence his Single Kolobakoloba which he released about a year ago was used to test the waters. According to Ayuba he said the idea is in a bid to have songs that will also play in disco hall.
Ayuba’s songs are reformatory and focuses on cultural activities in our traditional institutions ie Marriage, Naming Ceremony, Family, etc

” Ladies and Gentlemen, good morning Nigerians. My name is Bondu Alaska. The one and only Bondu Alaska. I want to use this medium to thank Nigerians because they have done a lot for me in my life. I’m a new person now, and I promise that I will not let you down”.
Abiodun Ayoyinka, the veteran actor behind the iconic character Papa Ajasco, is now bearing a new stage name called Bondu Alaska.
The move follows a public dispute with Wale Adenuga Productions over the use of the Papa Ajasco brand.
In a video announcing the rebranding on Instagram, Ayoyinka expressed gratitude for the support he received following his recent viral interview and promised to make a fresh start as Bondu Alaska.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, good morning Nigerians. My name is Bondu Alaska. The one and only Bondu Alaska. I want to use this medium to thank Nigerians because they have done a lot for me in my life. I’m a new person now, and I promise that I will not let you down”, he said.
He has since then changed his Instagram handle to @bondualaska_ and is encouraging fans and brands to connect with him under his new persona.
The rebranding appears to be a strategic response to legal constraints related to his Papa Ajasco role.
Hollywood and martial arts legend Chuck Norris, the iconic tough-guy actor known for his unbreakable on-screen persona and the long-running TV series Walker, Texas Ranger, has passed away at the age of 86.
Norris died on Thursday, March 19, 2026, in Hawaii following a recent medical emergency that led to his hospitalization, according to multiple reports and his family’s announcement. He was surrounded by loved ones and passed peacefully.
“It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning,” the family stated in a post on Instagram. “While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace.
“Born Carlos Ray Norris on March 10, 1940, in Ryan, Oklahoma, he rose to fame as a world champion martial artist before transitioning into acting. His breakthrough came in the 1972 film” The Way of the Dragon”, where he famously battled Bruce Lee in the Colosseum.
Norris went on to star in a string of 1980s action hits, including the “Missing in Action” trilogy, “The Delta Force” , and “Code of Silence”, cementing his image as an indestructible hero who delivered justice with roundhouse kicks and steely resolve.
He reached even wider audiences as Cordell Walker in the CBS series Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001), which ran for eight seasons and became a cultural staple with its mix of martial arts, moral lessons, and high-kicking action.
Beyond the screen, Norris inspired the viral “Chuck Norris Facts” internet meme phenomenon in the mid-2000s, where exaggerated jokes portrayed him as superhumanly invincible jokes that fans playfully referenced even in tributes following the news of his death.
Norris was also a U.S. Air Force veteran, author, and outspoken advocate for fitness, faith, and conservative values throughout his later years.
His passing marks the end of an era for action cinema and has drawn an outpouring of tributes from fans, fellow actors, and admirers worldwide.
