Ordinarily, we had thought of ignoring his unfounded cock
and bull response released on Wednesday, April 30, 2014, but for the influx of
questions the said reaction has raised about our integrity and credibility as a
reliable news medium.
First, we would want to state it clearly that Mr. Adetu
either released his statement under the influence of alcohol or perhaps its
equivalence, since his statement was neither an acceptance nor total denial of
ever granting the interview.
For the records, due to an erratic network, our
conversation was interrupted, breaking the interview into bits. For instance,
the first conversation lasted for – 00:18:27, the second – 00:01:59, the third
– 00:00:39; then he returned the call which eventually lasted for 00:03:37.
Apart from the above call record, we also want to inform
Mr. Adetu and the general public that we have as another proof, the audio of
the said interview, which we may be forced to release online if need be.
To further give credence to our exclusive report, it may
interest you to know that Mr. Bayo Adetu was quoted by ENCOMIUM MAGAZINE in
their current edition of Tuesday, April 29, 2014 (Vol. 17, No. 50), to have
confirmed that the P-Square break-up tale was indeed a stunt created by
Nigerian bloggers.
The interview reads in part: “… When the whole thing
started, I told people that it was not true, that there was no fight between
the Okoye Brothers. But people insisted that there was a fight, so I left them
to go ahead and write whatever they wanted.
“In that sense, they (bloggers) created the stunt
themselves and it’s something we laughed at, each time we came across such
stories.
“The Facebook account that people said belongs to Paul is
fake, neither Paul nor Peter has a Facebook account; it’s all fake, posted by
dubious people to mislead the public.”
Now, the question we have for Mr. Adetu is: was the
ENCOMIUM interview also fabricated? And if not, what was different from our
initial report?
However, with our heads held high up, we boldly stand by
our report, and we remain in our firm resolve to serve Nigerians with the
truth, and unbiased report of events as our vision statement reads…
