• Reekado Banks hinted at a problematic figure in the Nigerian entertainment industry while expressing his frustration
• The singer’s tweet followed an earlier post about exposing someone hindering young talents, stirring speculation among fans

Nigerian music star Ayoleyi Hanniel Solomon, popularly known as Reekado Banks, has set social media ablaze with a cryptic tweet, with fans buzzing.

The singer posted a follow-up tweet on March 25, 2025, to his earlier tweet from the same day, vowing to expose a powerful figure in the entertainment industry who is either 'clueless' or 'demonic' and is frustrating budding talents.

The use of 'Baba J,' a nickname often linked to Don Jazzy, along with the strong Yoruba insult 'oloriburuku' (meaning a useless or cursed person), has fuelled speculation about who Reekado Banks might be targeting.

What Reekado Banks tweeted earlier

At first, Reekado Banks tweeted about a "demonic and clueless" individual in one corner of the entertainment industry whose primary motive is to sign budding talents and then slow them down. In his words,

"One day , I’ll take an interview to talk about someone in the corners of the entertainment industry , who’s either absolutely CLUELESS or plain DEMONIC.

Somehow , the brightest budding talents fall in their lap and either through cluelessness or pure demonic activities , they agree to policies that effectively slow these talents down and for some other talents , frustrate them out of pursuing their dreams.

One day …"

In a follow-up tweet, Reekado Banks cleared the air, likely because fans suspected he was referring to his former boss, Don Jazzy. The singer made it clear that he wasn’t talking about Don Jazzy. He said:
