• Following the electrifying boost from “Brain Jotter,” Mike Ejeagha has been thrust into a dazzling spotlight, where the waves of admiration and adulation keep crashing in.
• Celebrities and content creators have descended on his home, indulging him with extravagant gifts and effusive praise.
• The legendary artist recently had the honor of hosting the governor of Enugu State, receiving not just a warm welcome but also prestigious accolades that highlight his monumental impact on the music scene.

In a grand tribute to highlife legend Mike ‘Gentleman’ Ejeagha, Peter Mbah, the Governor of Enugu State, has made headlines by renaming a major road after the iconic singer.

This prestigious gesture follows a memorable visit to Ejeagha’s home, where the legendary musician, known for his 1983 hit “Ka Esi Le Onye Isi Oche,” was visibly moved by the governor’s presence.

Ejeagha has enjoyed a sensational resurgence thanks to Brain Jotter’s viral dance craze, which features his track in a lively routine where dancers face off, perform quirky leg moves, and then chase each other, all set to the infectious chorus of “Gwo Gwo Gwo Ngwo.” This viral phenomenon has reinvigorated interest in Ejeagha’s music, bringing his timeless charm back into the limelight.

In heartwarming footage circulating online, Governor Mbah and his entourage are seen in Ejeagha’s living room, with the governor sitting close to the emotional singer. Overwhelmed by the honor and the outpouring of affection, Ejeagha’s joy is palpable.

He wrote;

“Today, we honoured a living legend, commissioning and renaming the popular Obinagu Road in Abakpa Nike Enugu, which leads to the home of Gentleman Mike Ejeagha

“Our administration purposefully rebuilt this road earlier in the year in honour our folk music legend and for the benefit of Ndi Enugu.

“As government, we have also assumed sole responsibility for his upkeep. We are grateful to God for a day such as this, on which a living legend is honoured while he is still among us”
