Addressing those questioning his silence over the issue, Basketmouth who had previously faced public scrutiny during his divorce in 2022, said he doesn’t want to be dragged.

“I have been receiving lots of emails and DMs from people asking me why I don’t want to get involved in Tuface and Annie’s matters? I have known 2Face for 27 years and I met Annie 24 years ago.

“First of all, I’m not in any position to get involved, because I’m not qualified at all. Make I no go talk the one wey go make people remember my own, con dey drag my head.

“This new year 2025, wey we just enter, I’m just trying to have undraggable year. Please, don’t push me.”

Popular social media critic, VeryDarkMan, has stated that media personality Toke Makinwa will be held accountable if any bad incident happens to 2Face.

Nigerian gospel artiste Mercy Chinwo has released a statement via her lawyers addressing the lawsuit against her former label boss, Ezekiel ThankGod, more popularly known as Eezee Concept.

In a press release posted on her Instagram page, Chinwo recounted her journey with the music producer, from starting as his background singer to becoming his client.

The mother of one also claimed that she signed her first contract in 2017, but the dates were later changed to 2019.

According to Chinwo, Eezee Concept proposed extending her initial five-year contract to 12 years. However, she declined, explaining to him that she had other plans.

Four years into the contract, Chinwo claims the relationship became toxic, and she was subjected to verbal and emotional abuse.

Chinwo alleged that Eezee Concept would use statements such as “I will deal with you, I will mess you up, I made you who you are. I can shut you up, and nobody will hear you again, and I will destroy your career.”

Mercy Chinwo further alleged that the label owner misled people who were inviting her to events about her availability.

She insisted that she never filed a lawsuit against Eezee Concept to demand her catalogue but only wants him to release the first three pages and the execution page of the contract she signed in 2017, which he allegedly altered, to the public.
