He was not signed then. He told me that he had a certain amount of money, I think N50k, that he wanted to work with me. “But my charges don pass N50k by that time wey I come dey work for Sunny Ade. That time I be big boy. I was like, ‘No o, I’m not doing.’ “I was gonna see if he was going to call me back but he didn’t call me back, so we just allowed that part to slide. Then, when he blew up, he called me back saying that he wanted to work with me,” he said.

The controversy surrounding Libianca’s win has highlighted the subjective nature of awards and the various factors that come into play during the selection process. While fans of Asake argue that his music transcends language barriers and should not hinder his chances of winning, others believe that international recognition often favors artists who cater to a wider, more global audience. The outcome of this year’s Best International New Act category has sparked a wider conversation about the impact of language and cultural diversity on award shows. @___bbr007 said; “What did you expect?

His life, however, took a different turn following their union as husband and wife in Italy as he gets beat up and molested frequently. How I met my wife in Malaysia “Just like the guy who married a single mother of two in lekki. I met my wife in Malaysia. Then she was my gf, things were so difficult for me there, she was of great help to me until I had to return to Nigeria. “She relocated to Italy after some time and there she got pregnant for two different men…said one of the men died and other refused marrying her. While I was in Nigeria, she helped me run my papers to Italy, n I came over. She handled everything herself. I felt so loved by her.” Genesis of domestic abuse from my wife “She was all good and loving when I came over too until I sent my people to pay her bride price in Nigeria. Since then, she has turned into a lion. I’m subjected to domestic violence. She beats me up a lot. The last time, I couldn’t see with my left eye for 2 weeks just because I asked a simple question concerning where she spent the night She has connections everywhere. I can’t report to the police. I’m forced to wash her pants, I’m forced to sex her even when I’m not in the mood and I must wash her plate for a very long time until she cums. I’m tired of this whole life. I love to do but gosh that’s not the only essence of my lyf. She doesn’t trust me one bit, always wants to go through my phone and never wants a lady, close to me. Especially young ladies.” Finding out about my wife’s prostitution businesses “The day I found out she is into olosho business here I was devastated. We have a girl and boy together making it 2 boys and 2 girl. I work and take care. I work and take care of all of them. But I am still a slave in my own house. Please I need advice. How do I run away from this place with my kids. She helped me come over n I feel indebted to her. But I’m dying inside. I’m 35 years and ages 42. This is not the kind of family I dreamt of. I’m writing this with tears in my eyes. I can’t speak up, My people will laugh at me Cos I was warned.”
