Bidemi Olaoba – Master Ponmo Ponmo

Bidemi Olaoba featuring Evangelist Elijah Akintunde, carries a culturally rooted message wrapped in energetic praise. In this vibrant gospel chant, Bidemi Olaoba frames God as the ultimate caretaker, drawing from a familiar African image: a mother securely carrying her child on her back. The phrase Ponmo Ponmo reflects that nurturing act, when a baby is carefully wrapped and backed, held close where warmth, protection, and attention never fail. By declaring God as the “Master Ponmo Ponmo,” the song celebrates divine care that never loosens its hold. It is a poetic reminder that believers are carried through life with intentional love and unwavering watchfulness.

Built on lively percussion, rhythmic call-and-response, and the spontaneous praise style that defines Bidemi Olaoba’s ministry, the song transforms this cultural metaphor into an atmosphere of joyful worship. Listeners are drawn into a celebration that feels both playful and deeply spiritual. The message resonates clearly: just as a child rests safely on a mother’s back, God carries His people through every season with dependable care and unmatched devotion.
