By Enitan Abdultawab Popular Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, popularly known as Asake, has warmed hearts online after gifting his mother a brand-new multi-million naira G-Waggon to celebrate Ramadan. The singer shared a video of the surprise on his Instagram page on Tuesday, captioning it, “Congratulations my love.” Fans flooded the comments with praise for the gesture, noting the joy on his mother’s face as she received the luxury vehicle. Asake had returned to Lagos about three days ago, and this surprise gift is his first public act since coming back. While Asake (Ololade Asake), widely known for his hit songs and energetic performances, has built a reputation as one of Nigeria’s leading Afrobeats stars, he’s also been open about the influence and support of his family, especially his mother, in his rise to fame. In past interviews, Asake has spoken about growing up in a close‐knit household where music and encouragement played a major role in shaping his ambitions. Though details about his personal family life are kept relatively private, fans have often noted that he publicly acknowledges his mother’s support during key career landmarks, including award celebrations and show announcements.
