On Sunday, February 7, 2016, Julius Agwu hosted ‘The Rebirth’ to a live audience at the Eko Hotels and Suites.

The event was graced by many celebrities including, gospel singer, Yinka Ayefele.

While on stage, Ayefele cited his disability as a wake-up call to all and explained how important it is to give thanks to God.

He said, “Some of us standing in front of me right now do not understand the wonders God Almighty has done in our lives. We are here to celebrate the rebirth of another individual whom God has given another chance after his successful brain surgery.”

“Sometimes, there are some things we appreciate we had in life and some other we also regret not having. How I wish I had another chance at life and I can stand on both feet the same way Julius Agwu and everyone in the hall is standing right now?,” he added.

Ayefele worked briefly as journalist and broadcaster at the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, Ibadan, where he also produced jingles and musical works on radio.

He began his music career in 1997 after he was involved in an automobile accident which damaged his spinal cord and confined him to a wheelchair.
