According to Oladipupo, who was Odunlade's trainee, the issues began after what seemed like a routine interaction that led to nothing afterward.
He stated:

“Odunlade Adekola offended me, and I’m pained. He told me anytime he needed me, he would call me for jobs. He called me aside that day, but since then, I didn’t see his calls or anything.”
"I always saw him as my boss. Even when he called me his friend, I didn’t see it that way. But it got to a point I realised the way I like him, he doesn’t like me that way."
Oladipupo also recalled a particular meeting that appeared to mark a turning point.
He claimed that after a “graduation” gathering, where they were told they had completed a phase under Adekola’s mentorship, things took an unexpected turn.
“He later called us for a meeting and said we should leave because he wanted to groom new people,” he said.
That moment, according to him, changed everything. What followed was a long period of silence — one that lasted years.
“For like three years, they didn’t call me for jobs,” he revealed, hinting at how the absence of opportunities affected his journey in the industry.
The conversation took another twist when Oladipupo brought up rumours that he is the father of actress Bukola Adeeyo’s son.
He alleged that some people questioned what the actress saw in him, making troubling claims about his character.
“They said what does she see in me? ' That I’m a cultist. That I don’t deserve to be her husband or even the father of her child,” he said.
