Asake reveals why he dumped his girlfriend after becoming a celeb

The ‘Joha’ hitmaker recalled hitting fame and receiving his first big pay check from his music, which made him so glad that he shared the news with her.

Asake said he told her exactly how much he made and decided to give her N2 million, but was shocked when she turned down the money claiming it was too small.

According to him, he had a conversation with his record label boss, Olamide, about the situation who advised him to break up with the girl and give the N2 million to his mother.

Asake revealed that he listened to his boss and gifted the money to his mum, so she’s now independent and does not need to rely on him for money anymore.

His words: “When I made my first big pay check from music, I was so happy that I shared the news with my girlfriend. I gave her full details of how much I made and the next day, I gave her 2 million naira as a gift.

“To my surprise, she turned it down saying 2 Million was too small compared to how much I had made. I was a bit worried coz this girl is from a humble background, and I never imagined her to be like that.

“I explained the situation to Olamide and he advised me to leave the girl, he also instructed me to send the 2 Million Naira to my mom.

“I’m glad I did coz my mom was able to make good use of the money and open a big provision store. My mom doesn’t call me for financial issues anymore coz she’s doing just fine.”
