The recent interview of Nigerian singer Eedris Abdulkareem on The Honest Bunch Podcast has stirred a wave of controversy, with several celebrities coming forward to challenge the veracity of his statements on various musical and personal matters, as reported by Abuja City Journal.
- Tony Tetuila: Tony Tetuila, Abdulkareem’s former bandmate, vehemently denounced Abdulkareem as a “bloody liar” following the interview. In a video shared on Instagram, Tetuila expressed his disbelief and disappointment, refuting Abdulkareem’s assertions about their musical collaboration. Abdulkareem had claimed that Tetuila joined their music group out of desperation to sing, a statement Tetuila vehemently denied, declaring Abdulkareem’s narrative as false.
- Seyi Law: Abdulkareem’s claims also drew skepticism from comedian Seyi Law, who denied Abdulkareem’s assertion that Seyi Law had expressed regret over supporting President Tinubu. Seyi Law took to social media to refute the claims, stating that Abdulkareem’s narrative did not align with reality. The comedian clarified that the conversation Abdulkareem referenced never occurred, highlighting discrepancies between Abdulkareem’s account and the actual events.
- Eddie Montana: Eddie Montana, the second member of their former music group The Remedies, also challenged Abdulkareem’s statements. During an Instagram Live session with Daddy Freeze, Montana debunked Abdulkareem’s assertions regarding the ownership of their hit song ‘Shakomo,’ asserting that he owned the breakout single and merely featured Abdulkareem on it. Montana criticized Abdulkareem’s recent remarks about Burna Boy, emphasizing that Abdulkareem lacked the authority to criticize Burna Boy’s actions. Montana’s remarks underscored a broader sentiment of disapproval towards Abdulkareem’s conduct within the industry.
