Mikel Obi has finally responded to 2Baba, shedding light on why he allegedly snubbed the music icon during a chance meeting in London.
Reflecting on their shared history, Mikel said: “We grew up together in Jos, and you achieved fame before me. I reached out to you several times, but you never responded. Then, the same God who blessed you answered my prayers, and fame found me too.”
He expressed his surprise at being approached by 2Baba in a London mall after years of silence: “Now that I’ve made it, suddenly you recognize me? Life has taught me that no one wants to associate with failure. That’s why I stay in my lane for peace and only keep connections with those who stood by me before fame.”
Concluding his statement, Mikel emphasized his stance: “I have no love for fake friends or pretenders.”
