He dismissed accusations of disrespect, stating, “Oga no be Linda Ikeji na” (meaning, “Our boss isn’t someone who gossips”).

In his words;

“How have I disrespected Wizi, that some you nuisance are currently saying? Who started the whole tin? Who firstly came for who? We should have kept just quiet, when he came for our Leader? I have always loved and respected wizi with all my life and i never pretended one day. I would always beg oga to make peace with him.

I would always call his femi, to arrange for him and oga to see and wine together. Morgan, would always tell me and oga, that wizi, can’t be trusted for friendship. That he would one day come for us, but we didn’t believe at all. Oga, has never at anytime order any of us to disrespect wizi. Oga no be Linda Ikeji na”.
