Wat a loss. Miss his songs and dat small local guitar
I grew up listening to his philosophical songs. Just a few days back my husband asked 'what about Dan Maraya Jos? Is he still alive?' We spent some minutes discussing him and his unique brand of music. Dan Maraya Jos, RIP Sir.
Hmmm,,,, Danmaraya jos, apart from singing, he was just different from other northern celeb, gentle and generous RIP Dan jos
Its either of the two.....u are a teenager or not from Nigeria.....
I knw dis man...i could remember my dad laugh to his songs since he undastnd hausa. RIP!
"Slow and steady wins the race"
Great man tnx for the info jst told my dad...he love his music. May his soul rest in peace.
Joan Morris, how about you respect the dead by shutting your mouth up! that you didn't know does not warrant your senseless and insensitive comments. for your information Dan Maraya Jos was not only known in Nigeria, but internationally known. show respect to the dead which should be reflection of life in general.
may Allah grant his soul eternal peaceful rest. ameen.
May his gentle soul rest in peace

Haba Joan Morris... It is not only P-Square and Kiss Daniel that are Popular. Some of us old enough: Dan Maraya Jos was VERY popular to us. No need to say what you said: just say RIP and leave it like that...
May Allah grant him eternal rest.....
May your soul rest in peace Dan Maraya Jos...
@ Aminu u are very stupid, who said am from Yoruba? En monkey, was I talking to u?
How would u? When all u know is lagos. Dan maraya is known in Europe and America. Be broad minded and learn other cultures
Linda,the man is older than 69. NTA says 84 and that looks more like it.the man has been around for quite a while.

RIP
69? Do you people no how to count?
I wish him RIP. But you lied about his age. He was almost looking 60 in 1985 when I got to know him. Always cross check your facts.
69 or 96? May his soul rest in peace
