Adekunle Gold and Samklef go head-to-head on Twitter as the Hitmaker tells the latter that his wife, Simi, doesn’t owe him anything. The tension was ignited when Samklef accused Adekunle Gold’s wife, Simi, of orchestrating online backlash against him.
Nigeria’s Twitter went on a rampage of online exchanges in the music scene. The first was the heated exchanges between Wizkid and David. Adekunle Gold and Samklef joined the party, with the latter’s accusations triggering a swift response from the former.
Samklef’s claims extended to asserting his role in shaping Simi’s career, vowing to remind her of his influence now and then. In response, Adekunle Gold ordered Samklef to stop calling his wife’s name every three market days and that his wife doesn’t owe him anything.
When will it be your turn to receive sense from your 7th heaven? Because you are clearly lost in your own damn mind. Simi doesn’t owe you shit and it’s about time you stopped calling her name every 3 market days. If anything, you owe me! Stop fooling around and act your age! https://t.co/e41i3C8ElG

Amidst the online sparring, Adekunle Gold revisited an old grievance, recalling a previous incident where he and a friend paid Samklef for a song that was never produced. He recounted feeling mistreated when they visited Samklef’s residence in Ogba, further souring their relationship.
I’ll remind you @SAMKLEF since you have lost your senses. A few years ago, you collected money from me and my best friend for a song that you never produced. We came to your studio at Ogba twice but you treated us like we didn’t matter. You of all people want to talk about being… https://t.co/ssyijJaQpr
