Finally Osupa settles money rift with band boys

In from Ahmed Boulor . . .

The band boys of Fuji musician Saheed Osupa can now heave a sigh of relief after embarking on an indefinite strike over money, as feelers from the camp of the musician have confirmed that both parties have put the rift behind them.

Reports say the squabble between both parties was settled amicably but with clauses following the intervention of some prominent personalities who waded into the matter which threatened to tear the band apart.

Members of the band were warned to handle issues maturely with their boss next time when such an issue comes and not take matters into their own hand like they did weeks back which was described by the peacemakers as embarrassing.

It could be recalled that the band members began an indefinite strike weeks ago over several months of unpaid salaries.

According to reports, the debt drama has been on since late last year after which the 26 man band had a meeting early this year with the management of Osupa to bare their minds on the way forward to solve the crisis.

After the meeting, all efforts to call the attention of the management to redeem their promises fell on deaf ears prompting the band members to embark on an indefinite strike.
