“When I was with Eedris Abdulkareem, did he give me due acknowledgment? Eedris did not make me who I am today. I was the particular case that went to meet Eedris in his home. He never treated me well. I would stay at the front of his entryway from morning till night and he would send someone to instruct me to return following a week. When I gave back the next week, he would not see me. I utilized my cash to pay to go to his shows despite the fact that I was his band part. I was not celebrated.
The main cash Eedris paid me in his life was N1, 000 and it was after we had the Kuramo Beach show. That was nothing contrasted with the cash I had been spending on transport. I was not irritated in light of the fact that I needed a stage and I was learning.
Like I generally tell individuals, whatever you need in life, you simply need to make penance. Regardless of the possibility that they sustain you crap, you are not going to eat it for eternity. I picked up a considerable measure from that experience. It was through him that I met Sound Sultan and a quite a few people. Eedris and I don’t do likewise sort of music, so he doesn’t impact me musically. I have never been in a studio where he was recording before and he never gave me that open door, so how could i have been able to I take in anything from him,” he questioned.

For me to have conceded that I was his move down vocalist was my method for giving him due acknowledgment in light of the fact that he didn’t see me in that light. I could have said I was never with him but since I regard him, I opened up. It’s absolutely impossible I am going to compose my story without putting his name. He is still my manager. In the event that I am in a show and I see him, I would prostrate for him.
” It was bad to the point that he didn’t even know my name then, he alluded to me as Bayelsa kid. In the event that he was going for a show outside Lagos, no one would let me know. I would inevitably know and utilize my cash to transport myself there. I would call his young men and they would let me know the lodging they were cabin and I would take a bicycle to meet them. In his entire group, who is better at this point? I was excited to make it,” he said.
