  • Social media users criticised Ten Man, with some cautioning him about possible consequences of sharing the legal letter, while others accused him of being dishonest about his involvement

An X influencer known as Ten Man, with the handle @TenmanNoble1, has expressed emotional distress after being unexpectedly linked to a legal matter involving Afrobeats star Burna Boy.

On 26 January 2026, Burna Boy’s legal team issued a letter to X user Mirex Moses demanding the deletion of a post that alleged the singer had more than a professional relationship with American artist Sean 'Diddy' Combs.

The letter, which gave Moses 48 hours to comply, was sent through an email address belonging to Ten Man, who insists that he has no connection to Moses or the controversial post.

The situation arose after Moses’ tweet from 2025 resurfaced, containing claims about Burna Boy and Diddy alongside a link that drew attention online.

Burna Boy’s lawyers responded with a firm warning that failure to remove the post would lead to legal action and other lawful measures.

However, Ten Man allegedly found himself caught in the middle when his personal email was used as the contact point for the ultimatum, leaving him wrongly associated with the case.

In his reaction, Ten Man explained that the incident had caused him emotional distress, as he was being tied to a matter he knew nothing about.

He clarified that he was not affiliated with Moses and did not operate the account in question, emphasising that his details should be removed from any further correspondence.

He further noted that he had not commented on the Diddy documentary or mentioned Burna Boy’s name, yet his email, which he claimed he had only recently added to his bio, somehow reached the singer’s legal team.

Burna Boy declares Fela greater than him

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Burna Boy declared Fela as the only Afrobeat artist who is greater than him in a late-2025 livestream clip that resurfaced during the ongoing Wizkid and Seun Kuti clash.

In the video, the Grammy winner declared Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti as the king and the only musician greater than him while vibing to one of Fela’s songs.

The clip gained fresh attention as Nigerians linked Burna Boy’s remarks to debates over Fela’s legacy and Wizkid’s recent comments.
