Longtime manager, Muyiwa Awoniyi and sensational Nigerian singer, Omah Lay have officially ended their professional relationship.
TheNewsGuru reports that Awoniyi via the microblogging platform, X on Friday stated that he is no longer managing Omah Lay but maintains a bond of friendship and support for the singer’s future.
Shortly after the update, Omah Lay acknowledged Awoniyi’s role in his journey and expressed deep admiration for him in a heartfelt message.
The exchange appeared cordial until another artiste, Kaestyle, reacted to the news with sarcasm, alleging that Awoniyi was sacked and simply using social media to save face.
In response, Awoniyi clarified that his decision to manage Omah Lay was tied to helping the singer exit what he described as an exploitative contract.
He claimed that the singer now owns his masters and runs his music career independently under his company, Boy Alone.
He wrote: “I agreed to manage Omah to get him out of the very slave deal that you signed. Now he is out, I also am out. You on the other hand are a slave. If you know me, you know I’ve always been for the artist. Omah is exceptional and with Boy Alone now a fully established company, the journey moves forward on his own terms. The best part? He will now be owning his masters. I hope the delay now makes sense. Job done
