Nigerian afro-pop singer Adekunle Temitope popularly known as Small Doctor’s house has been gutted by fire.
A now-viral video captured how the fire consumed the singer’s properties worth millions of naira.
Some persons were also seen in the footage trying to salvage the little left of the home that had been reduced to ashes after the inferno.
Reacting to the incident, the singer also known as ‘Omo Better’ took to his Instagram Story to confirm the fire incident while appreciating God for life and safety.
The Afro-pop recording artiste further said the property loss is a sign of greater things to come.
“No pressure for the Lord is with me,” he wrote, adding “that no life was lost”.
“Ile Alaafin to jo, ewa lo bu kun, that is to say king house wey burn na make beautification fit plenty”.
Small Doctor kicked off his music career in 2012. He, however, shot himself into the limelight after the release of ‘Penalty’, his 2018 single.
‘Penalty’ won the award for ‘Best Street Hop’ at The Headies 2018.
Small Doctor has since then made a name for himself in the Nigerian music industry with a number of awards to his credit.
On October 9, 2020, Small Doctor led a massive amount of protesters, including five Agege women who have lost their children to the alleged brutality of now-defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) agents.
He led them all the way from Agege local government down to Lagos House of Assembly, Ikeja.
