Nigerian music sensation, Adekunle Gold, also known as AG Baby, has expressed displeasure after a well-known bank allegedly used his viral ‘first-class giveaway’ initiative in their advertising campaign without permission.

Adekunle Gold had launched a giveaway to reward individuals with first-class degrees, giving them cash prizes in recognition of their academic excellence.

The bank seemingly capitalized on the trend, incorporating it into their promotional message without the singer’s consent.

The bank message read: “AG Baby no send you first class gift? No worries, ALAT’s got you covered. Enjoy up to 70% off your favorite brands this weekend via eVouchers on the ALAT app – it’s no crime to not have a first-class degree.”

In response to this, the singer questioned the bank’s approach, asking when they started using his initiative and warning that his lawyers would be in touch.

He wrote, “Dear @wemabank @alat_ng, when did this start? You’ll be hearing from my people.”

Controversial social commentator VeryDarkMan has once again stirred online buzz with the release of a diss track targeting several prominent figures, including Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo, street-hop singer Portable and popular clergyman, Prophet Jeremiah Fufeyin.

VeryDarkMan mocked Okpebholo’s leaked West African Examination Council WAEC results, which showed low grades.

He criticized the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for endorsing a candidate with such poor academic records.

“E8, WAEC result of a governor. INEC, shame on you,” he rapped.

The activist continued his feud with Portable, referencing an alleged tricycle theft case that led to Portable being attacked and detained.

Controversial musician, Portable has denied stealing allegations levelled against him by VeryDarkMan.

The feud started after VeryDarkMan urged President Bola Tinubu to address the ongoing Benue killing and the economic hardship in the country.

Reacting to the development, the singer in an Instagram video told VeryDarkMan to stop calling out the President, stating that it was during Tinubu’s administration that VeryDarkMan started to live a luxury lifestyle.

On Wednesday morning, VeryDarkMan in a diss track taunted Portable for stealing a tricycle, chanting ‘Ole!’ (thief)”.

Replying to VeryDarkMan in the snippet of his diss track on Instagram, Portable denied stealing the tricycle, and accused the social media critic of being “gay”.

“VeryDarkMan, your mother. You’re a poor person. Your father is a shoe maker, I take after my father I’m not a thief. Stop calling me a thief,” he sings.
