Fuji musician, Pasuma has revealed why he stopped playing football to pursue a career in music.
The Fuji singer, in a recent interview with Iyabo Ojo the Queen Mother, said he used to be a professional footballer.
Pasuma said his decision to pursue music stemmed from not being selected to play at the 1985 FIFA/KODAK World championship in China — which was eventually won by Nigeria.
“I was a footballer but I decided to go into music because I was not picked to go to Kodak for the World Cup,” he said.
“So I now said I want to be a musician straight. I was a footballer before.”
Wasiu Alabi Pasuma grew up in the Mushin area of Lagos state. He started writing his own songs in 1984 after being inspired by K1 de Ultimate, his role model. He has since released over 30 albums.
Pasuma is one of the most successful musicians in the Fuji genre.
One thing about Pasuma that I like alot is his calmness and his humble spirit. Nothing can be more satisfying in this world than being humble.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
One ❤️❤️❤️
