Tunji Balogun, otherwise known as Teebillz, estranged husband to sensational, multiple award-winning female singer, Tiwa Savage, seems not be relenting after he issued a warning to Nigerian-American superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido.

Still spitting fire, Teebillz, who publicly cautioned Davido against disrespecting his family through his verified Instagram account on Monday, has clarified his statement, accusing the Grammy award nominee of threatening to send people to harm his family.

On Monday, he wrote: “Protecting one’s family isn’t just a duty; it reflects a man’s character, demonstrating his love and commitment. After the love Jamil, ‘The Mother of my Son,’ and I have shown towards your Daughter… My Family is the last one you will ever disrespect in Nigeria. It’s not a threat; as I told Bobo!

“You’ve been getting away with disrespect, DAVID ADELEKE… I’m not Uncle Dele, Amaju & Co…. I will also stand up for them and teach you a lesson. I gave you every chance, but you mistook it for another opportunity! They warned you not to cross me! I will impart a life lesson on the values of MONEY, SENSE, and RESPECT… I’ll wait until after you enjoy your Grammy, as I told Tunde Ednut, out of goodwill from my heart!!!.”

Following up on Tuesday, he directly accused Davido of threatening to send boys to his ex-wife and singer, Tiwa Savage after bullying her repeatedly, days after both of them recently unfollowed each other for undisclosed reasons.

Apart from accusing Davido of disrespecting his family and promised to teach him a lesson, he said the singer displayed arrogance and a carefree attitude when he attempted to reach out to him, saying: “What would you do if some threatened to send boys to the Mother of your son and this is the third time he’s bullied her……. you tried respectfully to reach out and the response is Arrogance and Nonchalant pls???”

Nigeria media ignoring me, donating my credit to Burna Boy, Seun Kuti cries out

Published

In a rare show of emotions, Seun Kuti, son of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti, has cried out over the shoddy treatment he is receiving in the hands of media practitioners in Nigeria, who are not only ignoring his achievements, but giving accolades due him to others.

The usually outspoken multi-talented instrumentalist and musician, and Grammy-nominee particularly expressed sadness at the rate his glory and recognition were being handed out to Burna Boy, Nigeria’s sensational musician ang Grammy award winner, citing a case where the latter was wrongly credited as the first artist to perform at Coachella in 2020, when in fact, he had performed at the festival in 2012.

He also bemoaned a situation where his brother, Femi Kuti, had received multiple Grammy nominations long before the same Burna Boy for Best World Music Album, adding that his album “Black Times” was nominated for Best World Music Album but overlooked by African award organisers.

Seun, who regretted that despite his recent Grammy nomination for his contribution to Janelle Monae’s “Age of Pleasure,” he was ignored by the local media among the Nigerian artists nominated for the 66th Grammys, he bewailed a situation, where he was being treated as if he actually came from another country.

Hear him: “My brother [Femi Kuti] has been nominated at the Grammys multiple times. They’ve nominated me, I was also nominated in the last edition. It was only my name that they [Nigerian media] didn’t mention among the Nigerian artists who were nominated for the 66th Grammys. That’s what they do every time as if I’m from Togo. That’s how they said Burna boy was the first Nigerian artiste to play in Coachella in 2020 where I’ve played in 2012 as if I’m from Togo.”

The controversial musician, has come under intense criticisms from colleagues in the industry, trying to push back against his claims that he solely created the robust atmosphere the Nigerian musicians were enjoying today by standing up to protect it at the time others cowered.

But regardless, the Nigeria jaga jaga crooner, noted for using his music to crusade against the ills of the society and who in one instance, was involved in a serious face-off with 50 Cents, an American music icon, has continued to release details of some of the events he was directly involved.

Narrating how the incident, which he said happened on the first day of the concert at Tafawa Balewa Square, in Lagos, he told the crew of how he singularly stood up to the harassment by confronting the 50 Cent’s bouncers, when the ordered him to exit the backstage.

Hear him: “For the plane saga, it was the second day. A day before that time, we were at TBS at the backstage and when 50 Cent and his crew came backstage, they chased and flogged every Nigerian out of the backstage including P-Square.

“I just dey boil for where I dey. I was waiting for them to come and chase me. So, they finally came. When they came they asked me to leave that 50 Cent was coming. I said, ‘So what? Please, get the f*ck out of my face.’ They went to report me to one of the organisers and he told them to leave me alone. Na there the wahala for start, so they escaped that night.”

The most dangerous thing I’ve ever done is jump out of a plane. I don’t even know how high but I went skydiving once. And I think for a second I was like, ‘Am I dying? I don’t know who sent me to do this. I don’t know why I decided to do this but here I am falling.

My uncle convinced me and my cousins to jump. I was like, ‘Wow! So cool. Daredevil.’ And then we got into the plane and I was like I will just stay in the plane and they said I can’t. They pushed us out.
