Danku speaks of fallout with Oristsefemi
Legit.ng earlier reported that Danku has opened a can of worms on his ex-artist, Oristefemi
Oristefemi had earlier said that he provided succour for Burna Boy after the singer had issues with his mother. He added that the Last Last crooner stayed in his house for a while.
Speaking in an interview with reality show star Doyin David on her podcast, Doyin's Corner, Danku said that Burna Boy never stayed with them. According to him, what the singer said was far from the truth.
