Here is what he wrote on his Twitter account.

“Kudos to someone like Zlatan, who took a bold step, by flushing out a full fake friend like Cuppy, who was just using his head, all in his name of ‘my papa na Otedola.’

“Zlatan did a hit collabo with her, ordinary one kobo, e no see. She also took Zlatan to Abuja, for her fundraising, where she made billions of Naira, and didn’t even remember Z for one Kobo till tomorrow. No accommodation, no feeding. Zlatan had to even spend his own money at Transcorp Hilton, to [cater] for everyone including me.

”This na 2021 abeg.”

DJ Cuppy and her legal team have frowned at the comments made by Israel and are threatening to charge him to court should he fail to apologize for his comments.

DJ Cuppy also demanded a letter of undertaking from Israel, to cease and desist from publishing further allegations.
