“Have Nigerians Become Numb?” ID Cabasa Speaks Out as Rising Violence Sparks Fresh Concern
A deeply emotional message from a respected voice in Nigeria’s entertainment industry is now triggering conversations across social media and beyond. As reports of killings, kidnappings, and violent attacks continue to surface from different parts of the country, concerns are growing not only about insecurity itself but also about how society is reacting to it.
Many tragic incidents often generate outrage and public debate, but some observers are now asking whether repeated exposure to violence is creating something more troubling — silence and emotional exhaustion.
Popular Nigerian music producer and record executive Olumide Ogunade, popularly known as ID Cabasa, has publicly expressed concern over what he described as a growing acceptance of disturbing events in Nigeria.
In an emotional video shared on social media, the veteran producer lamented that many citizens appear to be gradually becoming accustomed to reports of killings and violent incidents because such stories are now frequently occurring across different parts of the country.
According to him, the repeated cycle of violence is reducing the level of shock that would normally follow tragic events. He also argued that political, ethnic, and religious divisions often distract people from speaking collectively against insecurity and demanding accountability.
The producer expressed sadness that painful incidents quickly disappear from public attention before meaningful action or sustained discussions take place. He further suggested that many citizens increasingly feel abandoned as security concerns continue to dominate headlines.
His comments have since generated reactions online, with many people debating whether Nigerians are becoming desensitized to violence or simply struggling under the weight of repeated national challenges.
As the discussion continues, one difficult question appears to be emerging: Has society become too familiar with tragedy, or is there still enough collective urgency to demand change?
