Legendary singer, King Sunny Ade is amongst the select artistes whose instruments and costumes have been put on display at the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) in Phoenix, America.
A special corner has been dedicated to the iconic Juju music in the museum where his guitar and famous costume are currently being exhibited. The Musical Instrument Museum is famous for displaying at least 16,000 instruments of great artistes and countries from across the globe.
Also on display in the museum are some traditional instruments from Nigeria. Other famous artistes whose instruments are displayed at the museum include The Beatles, Stradivarius Taylor Swift.
King Sunny Ade, who turns 70 later this month, was recently honoured with an award of excellence as an honorary citizen and goodwill ambassador of the city of Houston. This honour was given as part of activities organised to celebrate the music legend ahead of his 70th birthday.
