Family of deceased fan slams Asake’s tribute

The family of Rebecca Ikulemo, the fan who died after attending Asake’s concert in London on Saturday, has slammed the singer’s tribute to her.

In a video posted to social media, Asake paid tribute to Rebecca, saying that she was a “beautiful soul” and that he was “deeply saddened” by her death. He also said that he would be donating money to her family.

However, Rebecca’s sister, Jessica Ikulemo, said that she was “disappointed” with Asake’s tribute. She said that he had not contacted the family to offer his condolences, and that he had used Rebecca’s videos without permission.

“He should not be using her videos or giving a ‘tribute’ without even reaching out to us,” Jessica said. “It is insensitive and disrespectful.”

Asake has not yet responded to the family’s criticism.

The death of Rebecca Ikulemo has sparked a debate about the safety of live concerts. Some people have called for stricter security measures at concerts, while others have said that the responsibility lies with fans to take care of themselves.
