Reekado Banks threatens to expose ‘demonic’ music industry figure

Popular singer, Reekado Banks has threatened to expose a saboteur of budding talents in the Nigerian music industry.
Banks described the mysterious figure as either “demonic or clueless”, adding that the person somehow manages to find the best talent whose careers he sabotages with poor decisions.
The singer hinted that the individual has a history of attracting emerging talents, which ultimately sabotages their success, and he promised to reveal the person in an upcoming interview.
In a cryptic post on X on Tuesday, Banks wrote, “One day, I’ll take an interview to talk about someone in the corners of the entertainment industry, who’s either absolutely clueless or plain demonic.
“Somehow, the brightest budding talents fall in their lap and either through cluelessness or pure demonic activities, they agree to policies that effectively slow these talents down and for some other talents, frustrate them out of pursuing their dreams. One day…”
His post sparked speculations that he was referring to a personality from his former label, Mavins Records, under whose watch he became a star.
However, Reekado Banks clarified in another post that he wasn’t referring to his former record label boss, Don Jazzy.
He wrote, “It may not be obvious to you all, but I’m definitely not referring to Baba J [Don Jazzy]. Ejo lol , pls n thanks.
“That said, oloriburuku gbaaaa, ni Eni to mo n so yi !”

“I remember 28 October 2008 you called me and said bobo Omo mi incase I don’t make it back to Nigeria pls take care of ur brother. I asked you why should I be the one to take care of my brother?
“You said because you feel I’m stronger and have got thick skin,” he recounted, expressing the pain of losing her the very next day.
“Sadly, the next day I heard you pass away in MECCA Saudi. I keep screaming mummy mummy but you are far gone from this world.”
Since her death, Bobrisky claimed to have taken on the responsibility of caring for his family, including his grandmother, who is now 87 years old and in good health.

“I’m still the one taking care of them till date. Mummy, ur baby need more strength to continue this responsibility,” he wrote.
He added that the year 2024 was particularly challenging for him, marked by significant financial losses and a controversial situation involving the EFCC related to currency issues.
He noted that sharing his struggles online often invites ridicule, as many have been anticipating his downfall.
“I went through hell in Nigeria as at 2024, I lost so much money.
“I can’t come online to cry because many of them will laugh at me because they have been waiting for this moment. Mummy, I need ur strength right now.
“I can’t say much here on the internet; all I need now is more strength,” he concluded.

He stood by me when I was rejected – Daddy Freeze finally admits friendship with Hushpuppi

Daddy Freeze, a popular On Air Personality and influencer has finally admitted to being friends, with embattled Nigeria fraudster and socialite, Hushpuppi.
Gatekeeper recalls that Hushpuppi whose real name is Ramon Abbas, was arrested by the FBI in 2020, and convicted of internet fraud in the U.S.
Before his arrest, Daddy Freeze in 2019 shared videos of his visit to Hushpuppi’s Dubai Palazzo Versace home on his YouTube.
Netizens had criticized Daddy Freeze for associating with a criminal and promoting Hushpuppi’s extravagant lifestyle.
Defending himself in the past, Freeze claimed he never knew Hushpuppi to be a criminal but an influencer.
However, Daddy Freeze in a new video shared by Tunde Ednut on Sunday, admitted to being friends with Hushpuppi, despite suspecting that his money was not legit.
“Hushpuppi has never given me money before, not even $1. But Hushpuppi gave me friendship when nobody wanted to be my friend because they believed I was the devil.
“ The first time I met Hushpuppi was when I was picked with some influencers to go to Dubai, and I’d already started the movement then (#FreeTheSheepple) but the influencers didn’t like me. And that was the time the church that I attended for 10 years rejected me. Everybody rejected me. Then Hushpuppi sends me a DM that ‘where are you, come over’.
“So we hung out with some of our friends and we gist, took pictures, and put on his snapchat. So, why won’t I be friends with someone who was my friend, how am I going to be angry with him? I might have guessed that his money was not legit. But Davido in one of his songs said ‘dey for who dey for you”.

I did not snatch Asake’s mother from his father – Veteran Fuji singer, Alani breaks silence

Musibau Alani, a veteran Fuji musician and stepfather of Afrobeats singer Asake, has denied snatching Asake’s mother, Fali, from his father, Odunsi (also known as Malo).
The controversy arose after Odunsi claimed that Asake had neglected him, leading to widespread social media discussions.
Musibau stated that he met Fali as a single mother who had previously divorced from Malo and married her, caring for Asake and raising three children with her.
He further added that Malo thanked him for taking care of Asake when they subsequently met.
Musibau confirmed his marriage to Asake’s mother during a media interview, saying the pair produced three children, two of whom are now deceased.
Recounting how he met and married Asake’s mother, he said “I met Fali as a single mother; she was already separated from her husband, whom I didn’t know at the time. We got along, and she moved in with me along with her son, Ahmed. I trained the boy.”
He also spoke about what transpired when he met Asake’s father on a later date after he’d married Fali.
He said, “I eventually met her ex-husband, Malo, who was working at a council in Lagos Island. The day he saw me there, he told his colleagues to thank me for taking good care of his son, Asake.
“For the record, I did not snatch Fali from her first husband, neither was I present nor played at Asake’s naming ceremony.”
