Nigerian superstar singer, Ikuforiji Olaitan Abdulrahman, popularly known as Oxlade, has just disclosed why he restricted late rapper, Mohbad’s account on Instagram.
Oxlade was recently criticized for sharing a screenshot of his chat with the late rapper as way of paying tribute to him which showed that he restricted Mohbad’s messages.
In reaction via a statement shared on his X handle on Friday, Oxlade stressed that he didn’t restrict Mohbad’s messages out of pride as projected.
He said, “How do you think people like me manage the DMs? We have teams. I restrict certain accounts to only me/my phone so only I can reply.
“I’m not clearing my name. I am giving you facts.
“I’ve lost a friend and I can’t even grieve properly because elders and blogs want to use me for clickbait. Fighting against bullying but you are bullying me. Make it make sense.
“I only restrict accounts I have a personal relationship with because my label runs my account in order not to miss important bookings and business conversations. So the restricted account is a way of pointing out to my label that the messages from these accounts are private and they come from my close friends.”
He added that he has been receiving death threats since these assumptions became widespread.
“I have been getting death threats ever since the event was unveiled but I no take anything personal because everything happens for a reason. You can silence me with a scandal but you can never dim my light. Imole season for a reason. Love; Gaza.” He said.
