Singer Qudus Olatunji, better known as Qdot, has spoken out after being attacked and robbed at gunpoint in his Lagos residence.
The incident occurred in the early hours of Sunday, September 28. Armed men were said to have broken into his home around 2:30 a.m., carting away phones, laptops and allegedly transferring money from his bank accounts. They also reportedly gained access to his social media pages.
Qdot confirmed the ordeal in a statement shared on Instagram on Wednesday, describing it as the “most terrifying experience” of his life.
“On the 28th of September, around 2:00 a.m. I was robbed at gunpoint in my own home, alongside my official DJ (DJ FAYA),” he wrote.
“It was the most terrifying experience of my life. In that moment, I genuinely didn’t know if I would make it out alive. But by the grace and mercy of God, I’m still here. I’m alive and for that, I’m eternally grateful. They took everything valuable I owned, down to the last pin. But they didn’t take my life and that alone is a blessing I don’t take for granted. I won’t lie, I’m still in shock, traumatized and deeply shaken by what happened. But I want you all to know: I’m okay. I’m safe now. I’m surrounded by love and support as I begin the long road to healing from this nightmare.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the messages, calls, and outpouring of love. Your support means more than words can express. I love you all and I’ll be back, stronger and wiser.”
The Fuji-fusion artiste captioned the post, “Ona ope mi po 🙏🙏🙏.”
Talent manager, Dami Adenuga, had earlier announced the attack in a post on X, warning the public to disregard suspicious messages or financial requests from the singer’s accounts.
