2face Clears The Air On Mikel Obi

Following the release of Tu Face’s hit track ‘Only me’, talks of a rift between him and Nigerian football sensation John Obi Mikel started like an unconfirmed truth, spread like wild fire and finally consumed both the world of Football and Entertainment.

But the legend of African music has come out to clear the air once and for all, speaking on your Champions dial Sports Radio 88.9 Brila Fm he said, ” I met John Obi Mikel for the first time at the MOBO awards two years before I released the song ‘Only me’ , I won an award on the night, Mikel congratulated me and along side P Square, D’Banj and Don Jazzy we all went to hangout together”

He added, “At the time I did the song, Mikel had issues with his inability to show up for certain Super Eagles games, then some very good rumour monger picked a line from my song as regards patriotism towards representing the National football team and ran with the story of a rift between us, I spoke with Mikel on the phone and we had a good laugh about it”

Also speaking on John Obi Mikel, he added “Mikel is a cool, somewhat quiet person and people misunderstand that for arrogance”.
