He stated that the incident occurred on the first day of the performance at Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos.
In the current episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast, Abdulkareem stated that when 50 Cent’s bouncers asked him to leave the backstage area, he refused.
The musician stated that it needed the intervention of one of the organisers to avoid an incident between him and the Americans.
He said, “For the plane saga, it was the second day. A day before that time, we were at TBS at the backstage and when 50 Cent and his crew came backstage, they chased and flogged every Nigerian out of the backstage including P-Square.
“I just dey boil for where I dey. I was waiting for them to come and chase me. So, they finally came. When they came they asked me to leave that 50 Cent was coming. I said, ‘So what? Please, get the f*ck out of my face.’ They went to report me to one of the organisers and he told them to leave me alone. Na there the wahala for start, so they escaped that night.”
Abdulkareem also alleged that Charly Boy betrayed him by accepting a bribe from Nigerian Breweries to destroy the evidence of 50 Cent’s crew bullying him during the plane saga.
He said Charly Boy blacklisted him after the incident.
“DJ Tee recorded everything that happened between me and 50 Cent’s crew on the plane but Charly Boy took the tape and used it to negotiate with Nigerian Breweries. The bastard blacklisted me,” he said
