Pastor Bayo Babajide is a seasoned instrumentalist, singer, music teacher and worship leader. He has directed church choirs for many years.

His love for and passion to create, teach and support excellent music/musicality began while he was a kid, who had the great privilege of watching his number one music mentor, his father, compose classic and timeless songs.

Prophet David Olulana Babajide, composed and arranged many songs, divinely inspired and communicated to him by God in the dead of the night.

Sometime in the 1960s, Baba came to the usual general morning devotion of Pastors and Student Evangelists studying under him and said “Let me teach you a song the Holy Spirit taught me through the night”, one of those songs is “Jiji Mo Ji”.

Which later became a household song to start the day with every morning. This song later spread to homes and

schools to begin their days and was also adopted by many churches.

Pastor Babajide was nicknamed – “The Singing-bird of Jesus,” and widely known for his sweet voice and a rich repertoire of gospel choruses and songs, Prophet Babajide was also a renowned multi-instrumentalist.

He was particularly proficient in playing the trumpet, guitar and keyboard. He was also an outstanding accordionist.

An author of many books, Prophet Babajide published two songbooks- a hymnbook with 85 Hymns (Orin Emi mimo), and a Chorus book with 183 choruses (Orin Idaraya). Most of these songs and choruses remain evergreen as contemporary classics spreading the gospel all over the world.

From the short history above, it is not surprising at all that his son would walk in his stead, particularly, musically.

Pastor Bayo did not stop at the rudimental knowledge of music which he obtained from his father, he graduated with a degree in Music from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

He is a Music Consultant to several churches and also teaches several instruments to adults and children of all ages.

Prophet has begun an extremely laudable project, to relive some of the evergreen songs composed by his father by putting them together as a whole Album (Songs of All Times).

He has chosen – Jiji Mo Ji as the first single to arouse the appetite of those that have always loved these songs and those that will begin to appreciate them.
