Popular Nigerian singer Qdot, whose real name is Qudus Oluwadamilare, has spoken candidly about the lingering trauma he is still battling months after a violent robbery at his Lagos home.
The frightening incident reportedly happened in the early hours of September 28, 2025, but according to the singer, the psychological impact has not faded with time. Qdot revealed that the experience continues to weigh heavily on his mental and emotional health.
He disclosed that since the attack, fear has become a constant companion, robbing him of peaceful sleep. The singer noted that he often wakes up around 2:30 a.m., the exact time the armed robbers invaded his residence, leaving him restless and anxious almost every night.
Qdot explained that the trauma has left his heart unsettled, with recurring thoughts that the attackers could return at any moment. He added that sleep no longer comes easily, as memories of the ordeal replay vividly in his mind.
Speaking further, the singer said he has been relying heavily on prayer, asking God for healing, emotional balance, and peace of mind. He also used the opportunity to call for improved security measures, stressing the need to better protect residents from such terrifying attacks.
It would be recalled that armed men allegedly stormed Qdot’s home at about 2 a.m., holding the singer and his official DJ at gunpoint while they ransacked the property. During the invasion, the attackers reportedly made away with phones, laptops, and other valuables.
In the aftermath, it was discovered that some of Qdot’s bank accounts and social media platforms had also been compromised, further compounding the distress caused by the incident.
Describing the ordeal as one of the most terrifying moments of his life, the singer admitted that he genuinely feared he might not survive the attack.
Despite the trauma, Qdot expressed deep gratitude to his friends, family, and fans for their unwavering support and encouragement during his recovery.
Qdot is widely known for hit songs such as “Gbese” and “Alomo Meta,” and he is the founder of the Yoruba Boi Music record label.
