Atawewe Thrills Thousands, Promotes Culture at Idimu Day 202

It was an evening of rhythm, nostalgia, and raw energy as legendary Fuji musician, Amb. Sulaimon Adio Atawewe, brought the crowd to life at the 2025 Idimu Day Celebration in Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos.

Popularly known as “Etu O Si, Oba O Je”, Atawewe reaffirmed his status as a maestro of the Fuji genre, thrilling thousands of fans with a dynamic stage performance that blended traditional Fuji beats with his signature Dancehall Fuji innovation. From his opening notes to his final bow, the atmosphere at the Idimu was nothing short of electric.

The event, organized by the Idimu Community Development Association in collaboration with cultural stakeholders, was a vibrant showcase of Yoruba culture, unity, and musical excellence. Atawewe’s performance was undoubtedly the highlight of the festivities.

With a well-curated set list, the veteran performer delivered fan favorites and classics that spanned his multi-decade career. The crowd erupted in excitement as he performed hits like “To ba bi e re” “Idimu Lawa,” and “Ki lo n fo loke.” The musical interlude was interspersed with praise-singing, call-and-response chants, and high-energy drumming that kept the crowd on their feet.

Dressed in a glittering Ankara for the event, Atawewe’s commanding stage presence and smooth vocals reaffirmed why he remains a household name in the Nigerian music scene. Beyond the performance, the artiste used the platform to promote peace, youth engagement, and cultural preservation.

“Idimu Day is not just a celebration; it’s a reminder of who we are. I’m honored to be here with my people,” Atawewe said during his performance.

Dignitaries at the event included traditional rulers, community leaders, local politicians, and entertainment industry players. Many praised Atawewe not only for his artistry but for consistently using his music to uplift the grassroots and champion indigenous sounds.

As the curtain fell on the 2025 edition of Idimu Day, one sentiment echoed from the crowd — Atawewe did not just perform, he owned the night.
