Tony Tetuila<\/a> and Eddy Remedy<\/a> have countered a claim by Eedris Abdulkareem<\/a> on the formation of The Remedies<\/a>, the now-defunct band.<\/span><\/p>\n

Founded in 1997, the group consisted of Tetuila, Eedris, and Eddy. Acclaimed as one of the pioneers of Afropop music in Nigeria, the group members, however, split in the early 2000s with members pursuing solo careers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eedris, on a recent episode of the Honest Bunch<\/a> podcast, claimed he and Eddy were the founding members of The Remedies.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said Tetuila later joined the group after they met him at a show in Ilorin, Kwara state, adding that he was \u201cdesperate to sing\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reacting to Eedris\u2019 claim via Instagram<\/a>, Tetuila said he is \u201chighly disappointed\u201d in him for \u201cspewing lies\u201d about the whole incident.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am highly disappointed in this guy, he is a bloody liar. How could a grown man like this be telling lies. Na God go punish who dey lie,\u201d he wrote while sharing a video of himself watching the interview.<\/span><\/p>\n

On his part, Eddy argued that he single-handedly formed The Remedies and invited Eedris and Tetuila to the group.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking in an Instagram live session<\/a> with Daddy Freeze, the US-based singer also narrated how he formed the group and sponsored their first tour in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eddy clarified that Tetuila did not join the group in Ilorin but in his apartment in Lagos where Eedris brought him to meet him.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said the group members could not fight for their royalties because they are no longer together.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eddy also hurled insults at Eedris while describing him as \u201ca cheat\u201d who should not be getting attention from Nigerians.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI do not know where Eedris\u2019s story is coming from. I was the one that invited him to the group. He introduced Tony Tetuila. I used the $5000 my parent gave me to move to America to sponsor our \u2018Shakomo\u2019 tour. It breaks me down. God knows how much I suffered for this group,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEedris went behind me after the Monday I met him that we need to Africanise a sound. Eedris met Omololu after I met him and said he needed a singer. Omololu agreed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEedris is a treacherous b**tard. Eedris is a cheat. Nigerians should stop listening to him.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEedris made N150 million from government when I was down.\u00a0The biggest help he would say he helped me is he sent me N5000 twice.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEvery artiste fights for the industry. I brought him to come to the table to eat. He started claiming he formed the group. He turned against me. I am 56 years years old. I came low to call Eedris and Tony to bring them into my group.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat is why Eedris was trying to take my glory at Remedies. We have not been able to fight for our royalties because we were apart.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHim no do us proud. He was supposed to do a collabo with 50 Cent hin go fight am. I lost my relationship with Guinness just because of his fight with 50 Cent. Since that day I lost my franchise with MBL.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Eedris has been in the news in the past few days over his controversial commentaries.<\/span><\/p>\n

He recently\u00a0engaged<\/a> in a war of words with Burna Boy and claimed<\/a> that Charly Boy \u201clacked integrity\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Isaac Fayose, brother of Ayodele Fayose, the former governor of Ekiti state, recently\u00a0described<\/a>\u00a0Eedris as \u201cone of the most useless artistes in Nigeria\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
