Internet users and fans of Nigerian artist Oladips are currently in a state of confusion due to conflicting reports about his alleged death. The artist’s management announced on Wednesday, via his Instagram page, that Oladips passed away on Tuesday, November 14, 2023.<\/p>\n
However, Oladips’ colleague and close acquaintance, Qdot, contradicted the death claims on Thursday, asserting that the rapper is still alive. Qdot shared a picture of Oladips on his Instagram page with the caption, “@oladipsoflife, my gee is alive.”<\/p>\n
The conflicting information has sparked varied reactions, with some questioning the authenticity of the news and others speculating that Oladips might have “faked” his death as a promotional strategy for his recently released album, ‘Superhero Adugbo.’<\/p>\n
Actress Bukunmi Oluwashina even deleted a tribute to Oladips from her Instagram account. Comments from social media users expressed a range of emotions, from skepticism about the news to criticism of using death for promotional purposes.<\/p>\n
One Tobi wrote, \u201cHe\u2019s Dead and that\u2019s it, even if he releases a statement himself, since you people like to joke with death. This country is hard enough already to be catching baseless cruise.\u201d<\/p>\n
One Ada wrote, \u201cThere should be a penalty for this level of clout chasing if this is true.\u201d<\/p>\n
One Chukwu wrote, \u201cYou are officially dead to us. RIP Oladips. Promotion no suppose hard like this.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSadly, people only show you love when you\u2019re dead, I can\u2019t blame him for this promotion strategy shah cuz they wouldn\u2019t have streamed his songs if he didn\u2019t do it like this,\u201d one Emma reacted.<\/p>\n
One Ozo wrote, \u201cIf this is true, then he went too extreme \u2026 imagine using death as a joke??? Una wan Dey whine God???\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
