Veteran Nigerian singer Gentleman Mike Ejeagha has been overwhelmed with emotion after his 2010 highlife song “Ka Esi Le Onye Isi Oche” went viral, thanks to skit maker Brain Jotter.
The song, released 14 years ago, resurfaced when Brain Jotter featured it in a skit, creating a dance move that synced perfectly with the music. The skit gained massive popularity, receiving 659,000 likes on Instagram and over 11 million views on TikTok.
