Nigerian singer Asake has been involved in a controversy after a fan alleged that he broke their friend’s iPhone 16 Pro Max. The incident sparked outrage on social media, with many calling Asake to apologize and replace the damaged phone.
The fan, Adeoye, took to social media to share his disappointment, stating that he and his friends were unhappy about the incident. Adeoye contacted actor Yhemo Lee, asking him to intervene and request that Asake apologize and replace the phone.
Yhemo Lee shared a screenshot of Adeoye’s message on his Instagram page, apologizing on behalf of Asake. However, many netizens felt that Yhemo Lee’s apology was insufficient and demanded that Asake personally reach out and apologize to the fan.
The incident has raised questions about celebrity responsibility and fan interactions. Asake has yet to address the allegations publicly.
Asake, known for his hit songs “Omo Ope” and “Sungba,” has gained a massive following in Nigeria and beyond. His fans, however, expect more accountability from him.
A lot of people have made comments on their social media pages concerning this issue, some of these comments were made on X platform.
