BREAKING: Nigerian Singer Lil Kesh Stabbed in Lagos Robbery, Loses Millions in Valuables
Lagos, Nigeria – Popular Nigerian singer, Keshinro Ololade, better known as Lil Kesh, has reportedly been stabbed during a robbery attack in Lagos on Wednesday night.
The 29-year-old music star was said to have been dispossessed of luxury jewellery worth millions of naira by the assailants. Reports indicate that Lil Kesh sustained a stab wound to the neck during the attack, sparking widespread concern among fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry.
According to Hip TV, the incident occurred when the singer was ambushed by robbers who carted away his valuables after inflicting injuries on him. However, as of the time of filing this report, neither Lil Kesh nor the Lagos State Police Command has issued an official statement.
The news of the attack has set social media abuzz, with fans flooding platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram with prayers, solidarity messages, and calls for better security across Lagos.
Lil Kesh rose to fame in 2014 with his hit single Shoki, which became a street anthem across Nigeria. Since then, he has collaborated with some of Africa’s biggest stars, including Olamide, Davido, and Wizkid, cementing his place in Nigeria’s street-hop music scene.
While fans await confirmation of his recovery and further details, the incident has once again reignited conversations about the rising wave of armed robberies in Lagos and the safety of public figures in Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
