Why I Restricted Mohbad’s Instagram Account – Oxlade
Renowned Nigerian Afrobeat artist, professionally known as Oxlade, whose real name is Ikuforiji Olaitan Abdulrahman, has clarified the reason behind restricting the late Nigerian rapper Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad’s Instagram account.
Following Mohbad’s unfortunate passing on September 12, various celebrities, fans, and Nigerians have been offering tributes to the ‘peace’ maestro.
Oxlade, in paying his respects to Mohbad, shared a screenshot of their Instagram conversation. Upon closer examination, it was evident that Mohbad’s account had been put under restriction, which garnered criticism from some Nigerians, expressed across different social media platforms.
Although the ‘Kulosa’ artist later deleted the screenshot, he continued to face strong disapproval and backlash from the public.
Addressing the matter on his X (formerly Twitter) account late on Friday, Oxlade disclosed that the intention behind restricting Mohbad’s account was not to belittle or neglect him, but rather to facilitate a proper response to their chat.
He clarified that his social media accounts are managed by his record label, and restricting an account serves as a signal to his label that messages from such accounts are of significance.
Oxlade also mentioned that he had received death threats in relation to this situation, but affirmed that he did not take these threats personally.
In the lengthy statement, he wrote, “Tape drop, I no talk. Lawsuit matter, I no talk. Lost endorsements. I still did not send it. You drag me for TikTok. Call me oxtail. Because the doctor put me on vocal rest for nodules, you people still neva cared, but I still never send.
“On This matter, I won’t be quiet. How do you think people like me manage the DMs? We have teams. I restrict certain accounts to only me/my phone so only I can reply. I’m not clearing my name. I am giving you facts.
“I’ve lost a friend, and I can’t grieve properly because elders and blogs want to use me for clickbait. Fighting against bullying, but you are bullying me. Make it make sense. I’m not speaking on this again, please. Let’s focus on getting justice. Make una use una time to do better things and leave other people to live.
“Note: I only restrict accounts I have a personal relationship with because my label runs my account in order not to miss important bookings and business conversations. So the restricted account is a way of pointing out to my label that the messages from these accounts are private and come from my close friends.
“I have been getting death threats ever since the event was unveiled but I don’t take anything personal because everything happens for a reason. You can silence me with a scandal but you can never dim my light. Imole season for a reason. Love; Gaza.”
