Popular OAP and content creator Nedu Wazobia has explained why he left The Honest Bunch podcast. He recently had his say during an appearance on The Clarity Zone podcast, and fans have been reacting.
Stressing that it was his idea to start the show in the beginning, Nedu stated that an ownership dispute with the handlers of the podcast led to his sudden exit.
The media personality added that reports that he left because of VDM are not true.
His words, “Many Nigerians thought I left because of what happened that last year but that wasn’t why I left. I started ‘Honest Bunch’, it wasn’t called the Honest Bunch. When I started the podcast, I was on radio. I needed an outlet where I could talk and say my mind.
So I went to a person that was running the place, he was a former staff of cool Fm. I called him, and we agreed to meet in a particular place. So the day I was going, the guy that was working with me then, Chudy I told him to come with me. And there is another guy, Austin. So we went there together. We sat down and told him ‘ This is my idea and this is what I want. He said, ‘Okay, how do we do it. I said ‘How it is going to work is you have a production house, the cameras, the team, my own is just to sit down and talk.
I had the idea, and I said, ‘Okay, let’s do it 50/50.’ So we shook hands. Anything that comes in, I take 50% and you keep 50%. It was a gentleman’s agreement. That was where I made the mistake.
They said something “Nedu, we are going to put out a statement that we are suspending you from the show.” In my head, I was like, so what now? Show wey I get? You dey craze? You dey give landlord quick notice?”
The next day, they searched CAC and found out that when the Honest Bunch was being registered, they registered it as 100% their product. I didn’t want to leave. I was going to wait for it to die down, but when I saw that it was 100% their product, I’m like no. Na him be say I no fit.”
