From Europe to America and even the Asian countries, many of Islamic music stars from Nigeria have spread the gospel of their music to their fans in the diaspora.

This time around, the roundly talented singer who left the shores of Nigeria on the 28th of December, 2015, began his music tour in Europe. According to what he revealed to Saheed Ojubanire Online some hours ago, he is currently in Barcelona, Spain, and would soon be going to Eindhoven, Holland, for another show. And from there, he would move to Las Vegas in the United States, to be part of a birthday party of a man he calls his mentor.
