Born in Kaduna to parents of Oboro, Umuahia in Abia state, He lived in Lagos most of His life.
Buchi actually started out as a resident Disc Jockey (DJ) at the then popular floating Buka Club in Marina with friend, Raskimono who was also playing the same trade. For years he was at it, then he met Chris Oyakhilome of Believers Love World a.k.a Christ Embassy who later brought him to Christ in 1992. From there on, there was no looking back for him.
It took another seven years before he released his first album in 1991, and when he did, it became an instant hit, winning an award in the first few months. The last one was released not too long ago. It is called The Sound of Life. The first was a huge success even though it was not an instant market success. It took about two years before Premier Music signed it up. In 2002, He released So Beautiful. This song had 'It is well' In 2005, 'What a Life' was released and it had songs like Nmama. It was a success too.

Buchi will be ministering for the first time at THE ENCOUNTER 15.
