Merygold Fuji Music Awards 2012 :::: Artist :::: Wasiu Alabi Pasuma

My names are Wasiu Alabi Ajibola Adekunle Odetola.
I was born and
brought up in Mushin, but my parents originally are
from Kwara state.

I attended Mushin Mission Primary School and the
Nigerian Model High School Mushin.

My incursion into music actually began in college
when some of my friends and I would gather in
some place during our annual inter-house sports
competition and begin to entertain those who are not
interested in seeing people running and jumping.

Growing up in Mushin area, abegi, was very tough
and rough. I come from a polygamous family. My
father had about five wives. (Presently he lives with
only one) including my mother. I did not grow up in
my father’s house because my parents separated
when I was six years and in primary one.

Growing up under my mother’s care, was fun as she
ensured that I never lacked anything. I never missed
living with my father, not at any moment.
