How Olamide saved my life by urging me to leave the woman I had when I became a celebrity.
In an interview, Nigerian musician Asake said that his boss, Olamide, urged him to break up with his lover when he got famous.
According to Asake, the “Only Me” hitmaker, he had a girlfriend before becoming famous, and when he received his huge music paycheck , he was so thrilled that he told her.
The musician went on to say that he told her exactly how much he made and chose to gift her with N2M from it.
Asake disclosed that he was surprised his girlfriend would turn down the N2M stressing that it is too small compared to how much he makes after receiving his big paycheck.
The singer added that he was worried because the lady came from a humble background and couldn’t expect such attitude from her.
Asake further added that he informed Olamide about it, and he advised him to leave the girl and then instructed him to give his mother instead.
Asake noted that he gave his mother the N2M and she established herself with a big provision and doesn’t even call her for financial issues anymore.
In his words; “When I made my first big pay check from music, I was so happy that I shared the news with my girlfriend. I gave her full details of how much I made and the next day, I gave her 2 million naira as a gift.
To my surprise, she turned it down saying 2 Million was too small compared to how much I had made. I was abit worried coz this girl is from a humble background and I never imagined her to be like that.
I explained the situation to Olamide and he advised me to leave the girl, he also instructed me to send the 2 Million Naira to my mom.
I’m glad I did coz my mom was able to make good use of the money and open a big provision store. My mom doesn’t call me for financial issues anymore coz she’s doing just fine…”
