Osupa and Pasuma are long-time friends who have also had their moments of music rivalry.
Pasuma’s son, Jibola, recorded an astonishing achievement by way of his emergence as the best-graduating student from Harlan Community Academy High School in the US.
Posting a picture of himself on social media on Friday, June 2, 2023, Jibola, donned in his graduation gown and holding a plaque, wrote, “Valedictorian, mission accomplished. Graduation day. Glory be to God. Big graduate. Unto the next.”
Before that, he had shared a post where he said, “Finally moving on to the next step of success. I am thankful to God, my mum, dad, sister, and everyone who helped me along the way. I have received over $400,000 in scholarship, and got into over 20 schools. I am ranked number one in the school and I am the valedictorian with a 4.20-grade point average. I am committed to the University of Illinois Honours College. Unto the next, forever going up.”
The son of the Fuji star had declared during his valedictory speech his desire to study Human Biology at the University of Illinois, Chicago, in line with his dream of eventually becoming a pediatrician.
