Former Super Eagles captain, Mikel Obi, has at last addressed the rumored long-standing beef with legendary singer, 2baba.
In 2006, it was asserted that Mike Obi had snubbed the Afropop icon at a London club.
Four years after, 2baba released a hit song titled “Only Me.”, which many assumed was directed at their alleged beef.
Though, 2baba stated that the song was never intended as a diss track or about Mikel, many didn’t believe him.
Just recently, Mikel, while engaging with a fan, had addressed the rumored beef.
A curious fan asked him about it, and he clarified that he never snubbed 2baba at a London club.
Mikel emphasized that he is a huge fan of 2Baba and would never have done anything to disrespect him.
An Instagram user identified as xfranky22 questioned him writing:
“Did you truly snub 2face at a club in London back in 2006?”
Surprisingly, the footballer responded to him writing:
“No, I never did. Am a big fan of his. So I wouldn’t do such a thing. Have a lovely day.”
Mikel Obi recounts how he paid ‘crãzy money’ to rescue his father from kidnappers
Weeks back, Mikel Obi had recounted how he paid a crãzy amount of money to save his father, Pa Michael, from kidnappers.
Obi Mikel revealed this while speaking with Dubai Eye 103.8 Sport.
Pa Michael was abducted by kidnappers along the Makurdi-Enugu road on his way to a funeral back in 2018 when Obi Mikel was representing the Super Eagles of Nigeria at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Mikel Obi bravely led the Super Eagles against Argentina four hours after he spoke with the kidnappers who kidnapped his father.
“They [the kidnappers] said listen, we know, is Mikel he would pay. If he doesn’t, we are going to shoot his dad. They said they had nothing to lose. They would shoot my dad and dump him somewhere,” Mikel Obi said.
“It was horrible. After the game, I got back on the phone, tried to negotiate with them, and spoke with them. They were calling some ridiculous amount of money for a start, and in the end, I still had to pay some crãzy amount of money to get my dad out.
