Early Life & Education

He enrolled at Muslim Mission Primary School in 1973, and six years later, to continue his senior studies, he transferred to Nigerian Model High School. Wasiu Alabi Pasuma described his early years as a sorrowful living hell. He occasionally just had one meal per day. So that he wouldn’t go to bed hungry. His mother would then ask him to eat at night. 

His parents split up when he was nine years old. Since then, his mother has raised him by herself. Being a well-educated guy, Wasiu Alabi Pasuma‘s father encouraged him to pursue a career in medicine. He desired a good life for his children and knew that a career as a Fuji musician would not bring in a lot of money. His decision to become a Fuji musician was also rejected by his mother. 

But as soon as his mother understood that he had made his decision, she began to back him. Because she wanted to be happy for her son, his mother wanted him to succeed. Wasiu Alabi Pasuma had dreams of being successful. Before he made Mushin famous, it was considered to be a town of mischievous individuals.

After completing his secondary studies, the musician underwent a tremendous transformation. After the debut album was released, his reputation expanded inside and outside Mushin.
