Sola POPOOLA
The feud between fuji star Wasiu Alabi Pasuma and protégé, Taye Currency escalated after Pasuma broke silence over the controversy triggered by currency few weeks back.
The renowned Lagos-based Fuji legend, seemed to have indirectly addressed the ongoing issue between himself and protégé, Taye Currency, during a recent show in Oluyole, Ibadan, Oyo State.
Pasuma, who had remained silent since the controversial statement by Currency went viral, took the opportunity during a live performance to express his thoughts through a metaphorical storyline.
Addressing the issue ,Pasuma recounted a tale of a cat and its owner, where the owner, despite feeding the cat, was scratched by it in return.
Although Pasuma did not directly mention Currency’s name, the audience easily decoded the message.
Responding to Pasuma in another show, at Ibadan, Taye Currency expressed disappointment over Pasuma’s public outburst describing it as unnecessary and unwarranted since he(currency ) had tendered apology over his utterances which sparked the controversy.
The embattled Ibadan based Fuji musician, however warned that he could spilled the bean if Pasuma did not refrain from attacking him in public.
Maintained that what he said was based on empirical facts ,Currency threatened that he could reveal some secret that will collapse the Fuji house.,if Pasuma failed to cease fire .
” I listened what my Oga(Pasuma) said about me at show in Ibadan and I am not happy with it .After all I have tendered public apology on the matter. I still maintain my stance that Pasuma is not old enough to be my father. I was not an apprentice under him , but I defer to him as a leader in the Fuji industry. What I expect him to say after my apology is to tell the world and our supporters that I am still his son in the Fuji house and the controversy will die .But with his latest utterances I know Pasuma is nursing some grudge against me” Taye lamented.
Expresing further frustration ,Taye Currency claimed that he had stood with Pasuma at many turbulent times .He also claimed to have picked fight innocent Saheed Osupa , all in defence and loyalty to Pasuma .” Let me say this,,I must not be pushed to the wall on this matter ,,lest I reveal the top secret between us that may collapse the Fuji house.
Taye Currency also warned upcoming Fuji musicians who may want to use the current misunderstandings between him and Pasuma to trend ,to be careful as he was ever ready to take them on and teach them some lessons they will never forget in their lives.
” For me ,I have accepted the new name given to me by Pasuma .I am a CAT’ but all the rats in the House must be prepared for big fight .” The embittered Currency said
