Brixton Academy crush have claimed Afrobeats star Asake “hasn’t done anything to support the investigation”.In December 2022, two people died in a fatal crowd crush that occurred at Asake’s concert in Brixton Academy. Gaby Hutchinson, 23, and Rebecca Ikumelo, 33, were killed when concertgoers without tickets rushed the doors at the venue to see the musician, leading to overcrowding.
Another 21-year-old woman is reportedly still in critical condition at the hospital a year on from the incident.Now, the families of Hutchinson and Ikumelo have appealed for more information and said Asake hasn’t done as much as he could.In an interview with the BBC, Gaby’s sisters Kelsey and Nina have said Asake is “the main person” who can help with the investigation. Asake’s representatives have been contacted for comment.“He’s not done nearly enough for the families,” said Kelsey.
“Maybe enough for himself.”“He’s used Gaby’s name in his speeches and concerts but he’s not done anything to support the investigation,” she continued. Asake returned to the UK this August to play the O2 Arena, where he paid tribute to the victims with a three-minute poem.“He has a voice, he can use it for good,” said Kelsey.
“He could come forward to his fans and ask for support with the appeals. These people had cameras and there are statements that they can give.”In another interview with The Guardian, Kelsey also claimed the singer “has never made a formal acknowledgement of our family.”Rebecca Ikumelo’s parents, Yetunde Olodo and Anthony Ikumelo, have also called on Asake to do more.
