Tension enveloped the town of Ikire in Irewole Local Government Area of Osun State on Sunday following an attack on the convoy of popular Fuji musician, Alhaji Wasiu Alabi Pasuma. The incident, which occurred in the afternoon, involved suspected hoodlums who reportedly stoned and fired gunshots at vehicles in the musician’s convoy.

According to eyewitnesses, the vehicles affected included a black Hummer Jeep and a white Hilux truck, both of which sustained visible damage. It remains unclear whether any member of Pasuma’s entourage was injured during the attack.

 

A video now circulating widely on social media captures the chaotic aftermath of the incident. In the footage, distressed voices are heard in the background, with one individual speaking in Pidgin English saying, “Kasala don burst for Ikire. They don attack us. They carry gun shoot us but God dey.”

The attack caused panic among residents and disrupted normal activities in the area. Business owners were seen closing their shops, while passers-by fled the scene for safety.

Pasuma was reportedly in Osun State for a performance, although the exact purpose and schedule of his visit have not been officially confirmed. Efforts by journalists to contact the musician or his management for comments have so far been unsuccessful.

As at the time of filing this report, the Osun State Police Command had not released any official statement regarding the incident, nor confirmed whether any arrests had been made.

Alhaji Wasiu Alabi Pasuma, widely known in the Fuji music scene, is a prominent figure whose public appearances often draw large crowds. The incident has raised concerns about security at public gatherings involving high-profile individuals.
