Former Senate President Bukola Saraki has extended his congratulations to his son, Seni, following his victory at the 67th Grammy Awards.

Seni received his first Grammy for his role in the Bob Marley: One Love soundtrack, which took home the award for Best Reggae Album.

Saraki in a post shared on his X handle expressed joy at seeing his son’s passion recognised on a global stage, stating that he is “super proud” of him.

“Congratulations, Seni, on winning your first Grammy last night for your work on the Bob Marley: One Love soundtrack, which took home the award for Best Reggae Album!.

“Seeing you pour your heart into your passion and having it recognised on the global stage is an indescribable joy. Well done! We are super proud of you!”

Seni expressed gratitude to all the artists and producers who contributed to the project’s success, including Nigeria’s Wizkid and Bloody Civilian.

“I appreciate all the amazing artistes, producers and engineers who were brave enough to take on this project because it is about Bob Marley’s legacy,” he said.

“I appreciate them for taking on the songs, reinterpreting them, and doing it their own way. Artists like Bloody Civilian, Wizkid, Daniel Caesar, and Jessie Reyez.”

Bob Marley: One Love is a biographical film depicting the life of the reggae icon, exploring how he overcame adversity and the journey behind his revolutionary music.

In 2023, the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, a project Seni worked on as a music consultant, earned four Grammy nominations.

According to Wikipedia, Seni is the CEO of The Native, a Lagos-based music magazine he co-founded with Teni ‘Teezee’ Zaccheaus in 2016.
