Amid swirling controversy, popular Nigerian media personality Nedu Wazobia has debunked rumors that he was fired from the widely followed podcast, The Honest Bunch.
Speaking at a recent press conference, Nedu clarified that his departure was a personal decision rather than a forced exit. He explained that he stepped away to protect the integrity of the show amid increasing personal attacks.
“Let me straighten something out—I was not fired from The Honest Bunch, I was never fired. I decided to step away when the attacks became very personal so that the show can go on. I was not fired,” Nedu stated firmly.
Defending the Podcast’s Neutrality
Nedu also addressed concerns regarding the podcast’s stance on controversial topics, emphasizing that the views expressed on the platform belong solely to the guests and not the show itself.
“Every opinion shared on this platform is the opinion of the guest, not of the show itself. Everyone has the right to an opinion and the right to report,” he added.
Allegations and Social Media Speculation
Nedu’s statement comes in response to accusations made by online personality VeryDarkMan, who alleged that Nedu demanded sexual favors in exchange for roles. He also claimed to have a list of celebrities Nedu had allegedly been involved with.
Rather than engaging in a public exchange, Nedu dismissed the speculation, choosing to maintain his professionalism.
“A lot of things have been going on left, right, and center, but I am going to say this—I am not one to indulge in petty exchanges of words. That’s not who I am. It has never been my style, and it will never be my style to jab words with people on social media,” he asserted.
Despite the controversy, Nedu remains focused on his career, reaffirming his commitment to media excellence while steering clear of social media drama.
