This comes as a shock when
Babatunde Zollner lamented bitterly, that his former artiste, Gabriel Afolayan
aka G fresh should leave him alone, an insider make it very clear that the both
parties who met few years back and worked together for over a year plus, parted
few months ago and since then, Gabriel Afolayan has been on his former
manager’s trail for only God knows, according to our source, Babatunde Zollner
worked with Gabriel Afolayan with all his heart and help did all his best
bringing Gabriel into the music industry, through his song “Kokoro ife”. And
also release few other singles
I really do not know why Gabriel
Afolayan should do that to a manager who worked for him selflessly, so many
times, his former manager would call him, he would ignore the calls without
returning any of them, he got him shows after they had issues, Gabriel ignored
the shows because they don’t work together anymore, says an insider, who
pleaded anonymity.
The CEO HABDULL MEDIA which
happens to be the younger brother to D’banj’s former manager, Bankuli also
tried settling the issue between them, but Gabriel insisted, he
continues…Gabriel and his new team of management recently visited the home of
his former manager uninvited, meeting the parent at home, and swept away 2
awards belonging to himself without prior notice from Babatunde Zollner.
When contacted via phone to
confirm the reports, the formal manager lamented bitter saying, all I want is
for him to leave me alone, I owe him nothing rather he is the one owing me, but
I have handed-over everything to God, I just want Gabriel Afolayan to leave me
alone, I have tried my best helping him get into the music scene with his
kokoro ife song
Babatunde Zollner, who’s the CEO,
Zollner Talent management and currently the management company for UK base
artiste, Omo Akin, whose song “Do me Wayo” is currently enjoying massive
air-play across the country,
And event manager and a reporter
who also pleaded anonymity pointed out that Gabriel’s new management, Cream
entertainment, headed by Obasijaude, has been a major factor as to why the
Kokoro ife’s crooner is yet to hit the spotlight, as the management is known
for turning press men down without any sense of remorse, all efforts to contact
Gabriel Afolayan and his new management to confirm and also hear their own side
of the story prove abortive as at the time of filing this report.
