Recall that Paulo urged his associates including Seun Kuti who also associates with VDM to distance themselves from the controversial activist after he dragged his partner, actress Iyabo Ojo, claiming she wasn’t invited to Davido and Chioma’s wedding but to the after-party.

Reacting in a video message shared via his Instagram account, Kuti said Paulo cannot order him publicly.

“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,” he said.

“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.”

He added that “elders must earn respect.”
