TWO POPULAR FEMALE ISLAMIC ARTISTES FIGHT OVER A MALE PRODUCER

…THIS IS THE TRUE STATE OF THE MATTER, THE PRODUCER SPEAKS

Hmmm…you must be one of the most active Aprokos we have around to have rushed down to read this story. And sorry to disappoint you, the story is not exactly about what you are thinking. The moment you saw the headline scream that: TWO POPULAR FEMALE ISLAMIC ARTISTES FIGHT OVER A MALE PRODUCER, it is predictable that you must have thought the Islamic artistes must be fighting over dating the male producer. That is not it!

Here is what it is. The rumour mill currently has it that there is a cold war going on between two talented and very popular Islamic artistes, Alhaja Basirat Olomitutu better known as Iya Nghana and Alhaja Kafayat Singer over a gifted music producer, Issa Alabede aka Agbara Orin. And the alleged cause of the misgiving between the two pretty Islamic singers is said to be a claim by Iya Nghana that Kafayat Singer has poached her producer, Issa Alabede from her.


Until recently, Issa Alabede had been the favourite producer to Iya Nghana and he was hardly producing for any other Islamic artiste except her, but the pendulum of favoritism for Issa Alabede seems to have swung to the side of Kafayat Singer, a development which is reportedly not going down well with Iya Nghana. And that is said to have engendered a cold war between the two Islamic artistes.

Meanwhile, Saheed Ojubanire Online sought to dig to the root of the matter by engaging Issa Alabede in BBM chat recently, and the well-sought after producer who produces for one of the foremost Fuji artistes in Nigeria, Alhaji Shefiu Alao Adekunle (Baba Oko), revealed that there is no iota of truth in the rumour that the cool headed singers are fighting over him.


Issa Alabede however disclosed that it is true that he was more into producing for Iya Nghana before now but that he has been doing more jobs with Kafayat Singer of late, but he still maintains a very cordial working relationship with Iya Nghana. He added that as a music producer, he can be approached by any artiste interested in his work to produce for them and that cannot cause animosity either between the new artiste and the artistes he has produced for before, or him and the artistes he has produced for, before the new ones.

And he concluded that the rumour mongers should look for another tale to tell because the current one would not sell.
