    March 8, 2023. I have really missed this song like mad. I remember when I was in Primary 3 in 1995 at Federal College of Education Primary School here in Akoka, Lagos. My school along with other schools were invited for an event and to our surprise Daddy Showkey came out of Nowhere and we screamed in Joy seeing Daddy Showkey and my classmate then, Olumide was really good at dancing to this song and he challenged Daddy Showkey on stage to dance with him and all the schools present there pointed to my classmate Olumide to be the winner because he danced to the song so well. Pure nostalgic feeling. Old but GOLD.
