Veteran Nollywood actor, Yemi Ayebo laments as he claims that the popular singer, Olamide never compensated him for using his name, ‘Yemi my lover’ in his music.
He made this known while speaking in a recent interview.
According to him, he was excited when he had heard the singer use the name in his song.
When he was having a chat with Pasuma, he had asked him whether Olamide had compensated him for using the name.
However, he had answered in the negative, noting that he and the singer had never spoken.
At that moment, Pasuma had connected them, giving him Olamide’s number.
He noted that he called the singer for the next six months and he never picked nor replied his text messages.
The actor said in part …
“When Olamide used my name in his song Yemi My Lover, I was so happy but he didn’t compensate me. Pasuma gave me Olamide’s number & I called him for over six months but he never picked up, so I just let it go….”
