Speculations as Reekado Banks sparks buzz with cryptic post

• The artist shared a tweet indicating a significant issue within the Nigerian entertainment industry.

• Reekado Banks, signed to Mavin Records by Don Jazzy, criticized an industry figure he described as either “absolutely clueless” or “plain demonic.”

Nigerian singer Ayoleyi Hanniel Solomon, popularly known as Reekado Banks, has sparked speculation online after posting a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter).

In his post, Reekado criticized an unnamed individual or organization in the entertainment industry, suggesting they are either “completely clueless” or “intentionally malicious.” He accused them of targeting talented rising stars, only to trap them in unfavorable conditions that either slow down their careers or push them out of the industry entirely.

The tweet has drawn significant attention, with fans and fellow artists debating who or what he might be referring to. His statement comes amid growing discussions about the struggles of emerging talents in the Nigerian music scene.

Reekado’s sharp words—especially his choice of “clueless” or “demonic”—have added weight to ongoing concerns about mismanagement, stifling contracts, and the darker side of the music business.

Although he didn’t name names, many believe his comments shed light on a pattern of systemic issues that continue to affect young creatives in the industry. The post has since gone viral, fueling conversation about the need for transparency and reform within entertainment circles.
