May D claims he is not aware of his sack from Square Records

 

When contacted this morning following the statement released by Jude Okoye that May D is no longer an artist under Square Records; May D claimed he was not aware of the sack. His associates said they all heard about the sack on blogs and social media; that May D was not properly informed.

We believe that the contract between them was not consummated on the internet, how come a disclaimer was issued to bloggers and journalists without properly serving notice to the person involved?

If this is true, then it's unfortunate!

The man of the night arrived at the Eko Hotel & Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos with his entourage in style. The 36 year old, “God Forgives, I Don’t” star, who was surrounded by lots of security guards, stepped out of a black SUV sporting his signature dark shades, a black round-neck tee, cream shorts and red sneakers.

And it seems Rick Ross would love to key into the Nigerian oil sector’s wealth as he tweeted his plans to join the oil money gang. He said “Officially joining the oil money gang” and followed up with another tweet few minutes later saying “Nigeria is rich with oil. Generational wealth. I need some”

Rick Ross who is already in the United States thanked Lagos for having him and also made reference to Nigerian-American rapper Wale.

And we are pretty sure, he had a fantastic time in Lagos. Check out the photo,  Rick Ross shared on Instagram of him and Germont Jackson lounging on yacht in Victoria Island, Lagos
