The video of the song, which was featured regularly on Botswana Television (Btv), seemed to appeal to a lot of people. Born in 1962, the musician, who was a resident entertainer for a number of hotels at different times, died on Monday due to illness.  Those who have been on outings at Gaborone Sun, would vividly remember the Oule hitmaker, as he was resident entertainer for the hotel for a long time, and patrons of the hotel seemed to enjoy his performances.
