The programme tagged “Tribute to Dagrin” was supposed to take place at Amphi theatre but later took at the Anglo-Moz car park. The change in venue was due to the fact that there was another programme – Livingspring 2010 – which was also to hold at Amphi theatre. The change in venue was what really discouraged most people from attending the programme. Nevertheless, a number of people still turned up for the programme.
Notwithstanding, I was an eye witness of the show on Thursday night 29t of April at Anglo Moz car park, the lovers’ bus stop. There was a projector at the venue displaying some pictures Dagrin took when he visited OAU sometime ago. Many may still recall that the night he performed in OAU, many people shed tears. They shed tears not because they knew he was going to die very soon, but because of the love they had for the deceased.
At the event, some up and coming artistes came to showcase their talents, to pay their last respect to the deceased. The entire show was not very interesting, it was only manageable. It’s just a pity that Dagrin is gone. May we never experience this kind of great loss in Nigeria again. May his “kondo” soul rest in perfect peace (AMEN).
