VeryDarkMan: You can’t order me publicly – Seun Kuti to Paulo
By John Ogunsemore
Afrobeats star, Seun Kuti has warned music executive, Paul Okoye popularly known as Paulo not to order him around in public.
Seun Kuti gave the warning in a video shared on his Instagram page.
He was reacting to the ultimatum given to him and others by Paulo to disassociate themselves from social media personality Martin Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan.
VeryDarkMan has been in a running battle with Paul O’s partner, Iyabo Ojo, whom he said wasn’t invited to Davido and Chioma’s wedding but to the after-party, a comment that provoked Paul O’s ultimatum.
Reacting, Seun Kuti said, “I have a good relationship with Paulo but that doesn’t give him the right to order me publicly.
“Even if Paulo has helped me, he can’t order me publicly. If he had called me on the phone, I would probably have cut ties with VDM by now. Because I don’t know how much the beef is worth to him.
“So that’s what I see in the relationship that we all have with ourselves in Nigeria.
“VDM for me is a necessity. VeryDarkMan is a necessity. Because he can do the personal. But I don’t know how to. VeryDarkMan can bring the people against the agents of corrupt politicians. Those people with the spirits of the politicians. Those politicians’ enablers who use their fame to bully the powerless.”
