Afrobeats artist Akinsanya Olakunle Hammed, also popularly known as Spice Boy, has opened up about past experiences and addressed recent criticism regarding his political stance in a recent chat with Potpourri.
Spice Boy clarified his position on publicly supporting APC and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stating that it is a matter of family loyalty, not political endorsement.
“Nobody should criticise me for supporting or campaigning for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. It is a family duty. Many people do things for their families online and are not judged so I ask for the same understanding. I’m only being supportive,” he said.
In a personal reflection, he shared how growing up in a neighbourhood filled with constant rumours influenced how he perceived people. He admitted to having judged others based on hearsay and expressed regret over those actions.
“I lived in a neighbourhood where rumours spread like the truth. I believed a lot of them and, unfortunately, judged people wrongly. I want to use this opportunity to apologise to anyone who may have been affected,” he said. His statement has generated conversations online, with many reacting to his sincerity and boldness.
