Adewale Ayuba Opens Up on His Move to America and Conversion to Christianity

In 1995, a three-month tour turned into a permanent stay due to threats from Sani Abacha's regime after his album advocated for the release of political prisoners, including Moshood Abiola.

Ayuba spoke about his new life, faith, and music career, offering a glimpse into his journey.

The singer said;

“I left for America with my full band members in 1995 for a summer show and others. We came to America for about three months and then returned to Nigeria.

“I returned to Nigeria in 1998 when Abacha died. The three years I stayed in America were by the grace of God because he is a good planner.

“When I was in America, I realized that I could only perform shows on weekends. My Mondays to Fridays were free. So, I enrolled in school. That was where I met my wife.

“After that, I took part in a lot of activities. Doing so was like building another foundation in America. That was not easy. From there, I completed my documentation and became an American citizen.

“I don’t see myself continuing in Fuji music, I believe I have done well. This is America, there’s more to explore in life, trusting that God has a plan.”
