Singer Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, popularly known as Mayorkun, has come under heavy criticism for using Nickie Dabarbie’s voice in his latest song. This move has sparked controversy, especially given the past allegations made by Nickie against the singer.

Previously, Nickie Dabarbie accused Mayorkun of attempting to use her for rituals and spiking her drink—allegations that Mayorkun vehemently denied, asserting that he had never met her before. Despite these serious accusations, Mayorkun recently teased a new song featuring Nickie’s voice, which has led to significant backlash on social media.

Some social media users have criticised Mayorkun’s decision, suggesting it might not sit well with Nickie. There is also speculation among some fans that the entire situation might be a publicity stunt.

A user, “eddyson31_,” commented, “You dey sue person for calling you out but you’re using her voice to make music, so what if she sues for using her voice?” Another user, “smallestbarber,” added, “Don’t even fight with an artist; they will use you in their song eventually.”

“official_smattkinzy” speculated about the situation, stating, “I’m now suspecting that all this is PR. Abeg, my people, they say that girl dey for jail now, but no one knows which prison she dey or if someone has visited her in the prison.”

Other users shared similar sentiments, with “symplyjemmy” expressing disapproval: “This is not nice though; you could tell she wasn’t herself. Using her voice tune isn’t nice at all.” Meanwhile, “succefull_peterz_nation” remarked, “But Nickie Barbie should get correct royalty for this feature because her intro mad gan!”

The controversy continues to unfold as fans and followers await further developments.
