President of Fuji Musicians Association of Nigeria, FUMAN, Alhaji Abass Akande Obesere, now fondly called VC of Entertainment, has taken a huge step to end the long-time supremacy war between Alhaji Alabi Pasuma, popularly known as Oganla, and Alhaji Saheed Osupa, also known as Obanla.

Obesere, in a latest album he entitled ‘Daddy’s Talk’, used the opportunity to plead with warring Pasuma and Osupa to quench the burning fire of quarrel so that the industry could move forward and grow better.

He, however, recalled that supremacy war was not new, saying it also happened during the reigns of Haruna Ishola, Ayinla Omowura, Tijani Mukaiba, Yusuf Olatunji, down to the time of late Ayinde Barrister, Ayinla Collimation, and now passed to their own generation.

But the ‘Omo Rapala’ crooner said such must end during their own generation because it had not done anything good to Fuji as a genre of music, rather dragged it back over the years.

Speaking in an interview, Obesere revealed what usually causes war among artistes.

He said: “The fans are always behind most of the quarrelling because they misinform and misinterpret what A says and tell B what A didn’t say and vice-versa.

“More so, when you sing in proverbs, fans instigate their favourite to reply just because they feel A intentionally dissed B.

“The truth is that insulting songs are not good for a talented musician because later in the future, people would say such singer doesn’t know more than dissing people and as such loses respect and would have made no positive impact.

“Therefore, as the chairman of Fuji artistes in Nigeria, when several moves had failed by people, even the late Ayinde Barrister to calm both Pasuma and Osupa, I decided to use the album to appeal and unite both my good and very talented friends to please put an end to the rift so that we can move forward and expand the industry and also leave something good for people coming behind us. We just have to stop that nonsense during our time.”
