Mr Fatoke was arrested on Tuesday while trying to board an Air France flight to Italy at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos. The drug was discovered in the false bottom of his luggage during the screening of passengers to Italy. He is the first trafficker to be arrested in 2013.
Fatoke said he played for KSA for 30 years before he was unceremoniously retired in 2007 and with nothing to fall back on, and with four wives, and many children, the grandfather turned to drugs. He said this trip was his first attempt. Drug trafficking should never be an option. Sad!

Really so sad...
Pathetic!
Casted!!!
Why a 62 year old Nigerian would trafic drugs is still something dat baffles me......when are we going to be done with these things that bring a negative image to our country....Ping 277DDBCD to get ma latest collection of clothings and accessories @ affordable prices.
Falling back on drug trafficking is actually no excuse. It's just like ones wife involving in extra marital affairs to survive (worst still, claiming it's her 1st time when caught)
I wish him well though but what d heck is he doing wit three wives? That's like three woes of investment.
*Linda. Wasted talent. Don't know him but must have listed to/ loved his skills.
You know whats annoying? All Nigerians in the western world are suspects and treated as such. People, pls report anyone doing illegal things in Europe/ Canada/ US to authorities to save us all from embarrasment we face on a daily basis.
4 wives! Yorubas with polygamy, nah wao oo!
It's even four wives sef with many shidreen. I still wish him well.
Some ppl can yan pata sa. Anyway, dt only shows d level of ur intelligence. So freezed & fixed.
dont mind them this man is an igbo man ,sophiscated people in naija ,thank god owolabi invented tv isiaka invented plane akeem invented computer i love this tribe die , they re the most sinless tribe in naija
Ode, U be mumu! Wetin be ur problem wit Yoruba wit polygamy? From my own tribe even worst! So mind wetin u go talk. Hissss
This is one of the problem we have in Nigeria, people having wives and children they cannot adequately provide for. It is hard enough to take care of one wife, not talking of four wives and many children. I can imagine malnourished children, without proper clothes, running all over the place.
Fuck fuck fuck!!!!!torubas n thr manners!!!!I guess he is jst tryin 2 leave an inheritance 4 his big boyz
Na you know o. A Yoruba man practices polygamy, but an igbo man engages in monogamy with countless concubines. Who is fooling who? Oshisko.
go to ur brother mike adenuga his the second richest man in the world ,leave drugs for young igbo guys abi u wan try then jam wahala ,or go meet those alhajas tht sell guinea brocade in oke arin , we know the koko from them so no nwaaa
Don't most of you know that most musicians made it doing this. Did you expect them to make it by the money you spray them at parties. How do you expect them to maintain a high class lifestyle?
We be mumu for Naija ooo. When a king's aide was caught, they turned it into yam flour. Gbosa! Who say we no get juju or voodoo?
Linda, abeg, when did airfrance start flying to Italy from Lagos? Airfrance is to France as Alitalia is to Italiy (from Lagos). #JustSaying
there is no job in the country, so don't put him down
Correction, an 4 wives n many children oh!
ikuku na eku ike okuko na aputa, chukwu zoputa anyi na aka ndi aboki na ndi ofemmanu
looking for a faster means to wealth! am sorry for you! i guess he just had to, to take care of all his wives and children. pity!
Congratulations Sir, now your qualifications will read:
1. A grandfather
2. Ex guitarist
3. Has four wives
4. Retired with nothing(RWN)
5. Drug trafficker and soon
5. Ex convict.
Lol @ 1st traficker in 2013.. May God help im sha
My friend stfu!!! Is it cos linda the tribalist tries to avoid posting stuffs from ur place, and enjoys posting anyfing to make yorubas look bad. Go on everywherenigeria, and other blogs, if u don't hide ur lizard face in shame for what ur brothers are doing. Especially outside the country.
I'm surprised she didn't post the one about the igbo dude that was executed last week in malaysia, and another in some other asian countries. Shameless lot.
I propose that any well educated progressive in Nigeria today simply cannot be tribalistic...If you are tribalistic, your level of education,exposure and world is automaically called into question. I am currently working on backing this up with factual poll data.
F..k you hypocrites and tribalist, I blame linda for even giving you space to comment. Who cares where he is from? This is someone's father and grandfather. In a country where things work even if a 65year old loses everything he still has social security or something to fall back on. Nigeria is decaying and people are not even noticing. Again f..k u-Newyorker
Sad.
Drug trafficking should NEVER be an option indeed!! This are the elderly people that we the young ones should be looking up to, This is just appalling!
Illiterate! Are Akeem And Isiaka Yoruba names? Yorubas bear them though.
kai, igbo no get sense sha. you guys are too ethnocentric and dubious.
Many wifes,big problem, u wan satify them all father Abraham. Na God catch u. Big eyes
This shit is just sad,smh* what pple wud to make the cheddah..and y do I av a feeling a million of his likes are also doing this shit na until dey catch em them go dey claim *first time* .Na tif wey dem catch be criminal na..Say Ken Cypher
What's this one saying?
O de, polygamy and Yoruba no be synonymous. Who u be sef? Omo ti ko niran! u beta mind ur language
Chioo papa won blow sef..hahaha
Na cocaine be this or ijebu garri?
Too sad
A show of shame
Am so Sorry sir
So pathetic shaa
igbo kwenu...another igbo using yoruba names...
KSA is heartless, the man worked for 30 year and u didn't pay him gratuity? What harm would 2m av done to KSA's account or pocket. Am highly disappointed. The man should av saved for rainy days too. And by now his kids should be taking care of him if he had trained dem as at when due. Well God see u through Baba.
This is what everyone in entertainment industry does. This is how they buy RangeRover sports including the girls. This man just got caught bcos sm1 probably snitched on him. We know this is not his 5th time let alone his 1st time. Our artists shld all be deeply investigated. They r drug dealers camoflaging as actors and musicians -Taz
So sad God will have mercy on him
@Ebeano. You better shut up when grown folks are taking! You have always exhibited your phobia for the Yoruba race. You need to keep that stuff to yourself! No tribe is subservient to the other. In this case,people are just going to be people! So tired of your ignorant ass (excuse my French) throwing the ethic card here. If you don't have jack doing,where don't you play with yourself and jerk off!

Excuse me! Did u just type "shidreen" u could have copied it from linda children.
You're stupid. How about your tribe that one woman will give birth to 9 children! No be why una no fit stay ur home town! So what are we talking about! You're all the same.
Em cup don full, d,banji nd co take note cos i know dat almost all of u deal on drug...anyway dat one no concern me cos even goodluck de take cocaine....nigerians r fake pple, dey use music 2 clover up der main business...,,may God help us *4billionmen*
Your comment is as stupid as your illiterate self! U didn't even make any sense. Dumb fuck!
that is very very sad... What is his fate now? Only God can help
Why wud KSA's guitarist be used to tag dis news?y didn't dey jst put his name nd not tag KSA?
Really Sad
i wonder why he was not recompensed after 3o years of nail bitting service.he has no excuse though relapsing into drug trafficking.i pity his situation.
Linda post my comment,whts rong wit u?I tire 4u oh. Must I pay b4 u post? Rubbish
He should make money with his guitarist by establishing a school. You start small before you know it, you're somewhere. Lots of want to learn to be guitarist. He must be a pro to have played the Maestro Juju lord. What a pity.

So sad
Why didn't he plan for the future if he was smart enough to marry four wives, was he planning to play Guitar forever..... No excuse for such
LMAO yoruba people and Polygamy, its a pity though!
Entertainment industry again... Hmmmm. #gurls rock#
Ooooo is very pity ,he need more money. This money self
Try read u statement again n see if it makes any SENCE! Sounds like a Retard's writing abi..? Good. Thank me later# wink
4 wives! That is 3 wives too many. Being a Nigerian in Diaspora, I struggle to find pity for him because he is one of those who continue to help sustain the (bad)perception of Nigerians abroad.
I'm glad he was caught in his own country. He'll probably walk free in a matter of weeks anyway.
Still not a good reason to do such. @ that age,it's very sad!
i feel so sorry for him, hope he gets a compassionate sentence.
At least its for 1 man unlike a yoruba woman who will have 9 children for 9 men
Did ksa help d man marry 4 wives ? Ah ah think b4 u type , dis man is a typical yoruba man instead of investing when the grass was grEen he chose to marry 4 wives . He has his self 2 blame
See how foolish u are! Commenting everywhere! Jobless bastard! Aje okuta ma momi! Oloriburuku
Dis is 1 one of d very few comments I have seen today dat makes sense

Wetin pain me na him 4 wives and plenty pikins.How clit sweet you to born football team?But if i get the chance i go carry coc o.I kno like naija prison na the issh be that.
@abby...U r daft as not to notice d spellin was intentional but not too stupid to realise wat it actually means... Take up a teachin job na!... Madam I knw all
wisdom is profitable to direct. How many wives does Sunny Ade have? And you weren't investing? Sad still!
Linda a job well done. To all the Yoruba people abusing the ibo's many your daftness be permanent amen. What happened to the intelligent yorubas of those days? They catch a Nigerian that should be living on pension with coke,and has put himself in a tight corner by marrying 4 wives and loads o kids,instead of finding a way forward for Nigeria and rejecting what is evil,u go ahead to blame the ibo's like they gave him d stuff to carry.your opinion sucks and if u have nothing meanngful to say n this blog stay d fuck off just read and move on.all this tribal wars must stop this is 2013 u want Nigeria to move forward with this behaviour? Loveless society #SMH# .Bonario fan.
Four wives and many kids my foot. Was he forced to marry them? He wants d good life and took the highway. Hahahahahahahaa
Sad?.? After squandering all his money on four wives.....what was he expecting na.
He does a backup guitarist have savings with 4 wives?
The problem with nigeria, a man will hv 3 wives 10kids, if you have 1 wife with 3kids and raise them right I garantee 1 of them will be doing well, even if he/she is not rich. They will be the 1 taken care of you. If u want other women hv a gf n move on when its getting too serious, its selfish for a man to marry more than 1 woman, cheat fine, but go back to your family at the end of the day
Yea he really needs to beg God for mercy,cos he is too close to his grave to be indulging in such!
You are a big mouthed warthog! "Yourba & polgamy" U won't curse the greedy old man who married 4 wives! Now na yoruba U de open ya mouth curse! Meanwhile they have been doing it,& sunny already settled them before retiring them so make him no blame my old boy º°˚
its really his first attempt!!! cos drug traffickers don't drop it in their luggage....they swallow it!.... his next trip would be a better 1 tho.....lol
Loool... Just laughing at the picture and how they made him pose with it... Tears... :')
Most of U̶̲̥̅̊ guys need Τ̅☺ ßƺ orientated about a lot of things before U̶̲̥̅̊ comment on this blog.. Before U̶̲̥̅̊ comment, pls take time Τ̅☺ read with Ūя̲̅ brains not with Ūя̲̅ balls..

sorry BUT no sympathy for this man- why did he marry 4 wives???? He forgot to plan for his future while he was busy shacking them and procreating with them!
Your own stupidity will be permanent and will linger on in your family from gen to gen! Omo ti o ni ran! Aje okuta ma momi!
Wats with d tribal war? Y r pple so stupid in dis country...yoruba dis igbo dat... We all know that all tribes are guilty of difft offences,igbo guys carry drugs well n r smtims caught,read d newspapers,even hausas,all tribes engage in rituals n oda bad acts so y r u pointing fingers @ one tribe cos its in d news @tm... This is an individual problem not tribal. He made his choice...
It's unfortunate to be in this kind of self inflicted mess at this age after all the rock n roll years.
The country is turning into something else and to do this on the 1st shows he really wanted something different this year. My prayers to Nigerians generally!
i knw this man ... its a pity though, cos i listen to sunny's music i see this man with him those days ... GOD HELP HIM.
@eniola adewale what stupid talk is this coming out of your filthy mouth and bulky teeth. What has God help got to do with this? A man has been caught with a bad crime instead of you to prey he gets a lengthy sentenc you are asking god to help. MORON!
Yippy! Am so glad they caught him and I hope he gets the maximum sentence. If he had succeeded he'd definitely marry a fifth wife and paint the town red, ten call us hard working fellas FOOLS, but now you are going to jail hoping to die there. Do you know how many young lives die from drug use world wide mr Baba. Take him away and see you in 20 years when you're 80 that is. BÁBÁ ÓLÒSHÍ... Moron!
may God punish all of u that turned the matter into tribalistic issue. a 62yrs old Nigerian trafficking drugs shows our country is messed up, no pension schemes, all these people labour throughout their lives and have nothing to show and nothing to fall back on. sad sad story..
the thing looks like garri haha
YORUBA PEOPLE....IF NOT DRUGS, ITS FRAUD OR MURDER. PROMISCOUS LOT.
ANY CURSE SENT MY WAY...BACK TO SENDER AND LINEAGE OF THE SENDER. LEAVE BONARIO ET AL ALONE...TRIBALISTIC FOOLS.
U be confirm Edo Italo babe. How u no go know. Ur name alone sef....
4 wives? Who send him to marry and find it difficult to feed them?
Useless old man. A force him to marry four wives and he has the mouth to say he is suffering. Since he has done dis wat will his numerous children not do. Women sef, sometimes I wonder wat is wrong with us
@anon 11:11pm, u must be the most stupid person on earth no matter the level of ur education to allude such things to the yoruba race. I simply wonder how u made ur result and if u never had the kind of education I expected of u, then ur stupidity and myopic outlook to thing is seriously affecting ur thinking. Do u read the dailies? do u go online apart from lindaikeji blog? Do u interact with intelligent people? I don't mean d ones u ave a shouting match with for sake of argument or making a point, what I mean is intelligent people to prove their point. Where is it said that it only the yoruba's that do scam, fraud, prostitutions and every other bad things. I don't want to be like you who is blind but I plan to give you some home truth. I am a journalist and I had worked in many media houses and I'm presently working in a very big one and on daily basis I am opportune to see the content of our paper first hand. And I will tell you without being biased that the majority of crime committed in this country are committed by the igbos. First of all, and it baffles me, when you look at the names of those arrested for drug offences by NDLEA, it has many igbo names. I can go on and on about the atrocities of the igbos and I say these with intellectual fact not because of the insecurity I'm feeling as a yoruba tribe. If any igbo person want to gave a intellectual challenge of this you give me a challenge and I will create a opportunity to have a serious but sensible argument with room for judgement (I'm also ready to give the person my pin no and phone no) . Without being biased or tribal hate, I urge the insecure igbos coming on lindaikeji blog to always have their fact right before typing a comment or simply comment without starting tribal issues.

Nkechi its Sad what you posted, months ago if this man had asked u for money u wuld never have give him. if u are a thinker u wuldnt talk empty
Seriously?! too bad grandpa, too bad
Why dont i feel sad or sorry for this man? lemme guess: at 62 with 4 wives he should have children who are graduates and should be able to take care of him. 2. he played for sunny for 30years, what happened to the culture of saving for raining days? he thought he would play for sunny forever or was he hoping to be getting pension from sunny ade ni? 3. why 4 wives? apparently he had enough money to keep many wives while he was in active service and was prudent or wise with spending. 4. why drugs? @62: he could start a proper music school nd teach young people how to play the instrument, there are infact more than 50, 000 things he can do with his experience nd life ... then lastly: if u believe this is truely his 1st time then u can believe anything. #bye.
why does everything have to end in tribal war????? *sadface*
Wow! You seem really passionate writing this epistle! Try channeling the passion into getting a better education, so you can learn the use of punctuation and write properly!
You are just as bad as the previous writer, highlighting faults from another tribe! Like I said previously, education might help!
Jst see ur life Kunle!..he shld make money with his guitarist'which primary skul u bin go abeg?
And u must be really stupid as well with all ur intellectual prowess and havn d 'gloriousk opportunity of readn first hand news to dabble into such a matter and make such silly comments and claim not to he tribalistic..u are quite foolish!!Dis is what we r talkn about in Nigeria today,makn silly accusations and bringing up stupid,unnecessary arguments when u shld be thnkn of how to move ur life forward...its statements like dese dat make Nigeria remain wie it is today...Tribalism and Irrelevant Cultural/Ethnic Differences...dis is a new year...better giv urself brain..Idiot!
No mind her,,,i knw pity d man na d tin wey he sabi na full him belle
@anon 7, 3:28, I can bet u re d same guy that posted tribal comment that started the tribal issue on this blog. Well I can tell u my epistle make more sense dan anytin u had and will ever post on this blog. Simple fact is genius as it limit but stupidity is unlimited, so u no u belong to the latter. Well I might have made some few mistake in my epistle as u claimed but I will tell u categorically u don't and will never match up to ma level of education or exposure.
@anon Jan 7, 5:00. I wonder why u re so hurt up becos of my home truth. Well I just stated the fact and I guess u re the number one idiot of 2013 with a double degree if there is ever one given to people like u. Well, I know u re igbo to take it personal and I don't give a hoot if u decide to invent ur own dictionary just to feel like a scholar. First hand information shows that I know wat I'm talking about and I'm not an ignorant fool who failed to use his/her brain but her hand. This is 2013 like u said so I will advice u to drop ur old friends and move with does that will add value to ur rather shallow life.
Stop writing Igbo here, this not an Igbo blog!
@ anonymous January 6, 2013 5:50 AM, Why blame Linda for all these negative headlines caused by some yoruba people. If you think Linda is being selective, then kuku start a blog and give accurate infos on Igbo and crime. Better still u can stop visiting the blog before you see more headlines that will make you hate your tribe. This is 2013 ooo.
Mekus
@anon January 7, 2013 5:59 AM, you claim to be a journalist and NDLEA staff yet you are commenting as anonymous and your english sef no be like that of a journalist.
You also claim to have access to the dailies but almost all of us does and we all know the tribe that makes the wrong headlines most. If you want we can keeping the records but meanwhile na three yoruba names don enter headline yesterday.
And I wonder why u de find pin and phone numbers of igbos, infact you sound more like a demented criminal.
Mekus.
Dear stupid mekus, please kindly give me a good definition of how a journalist english should be. The point is my comment must have hit u real hard to make ur miserable fingers type back ur very stupid comment. And where do I ever mentioned that I'm an NDLEA agent? Well, I can see that u must have sat for ur waec 10 before passing it and even @ that, someone has to sit for it for u. If not u would have understood my very simple english which I deliberately make simple for people like u. U can come back on to haul more insult @ me, and I will be ready for u all the time. Miserable criminal like u, who should be rotting in prison to free us innocent citizen. I can even bet everything about u smell crime.
