Shocked by the outcome of the event, he noted that people were stunned by his friend's behaviour.

“Imagine a room full of strangers planning an event and suggested me. And the only person who knows me well inside the room. Like knows me knows me kept blocking it. Only for one of the strangers to come outside ask if I have a problem with her. I said not all, we are Gee’s.
So I did get the gig, because client insisted. Anyways we met at sound check. Her first words were "timi this your voice sha”.
How is busola and your amazing kids?!
Like me and this person NA Gee. I can even say somewhat family.

Trust me NA, I just smile and said they are fine.
A lesson once learnt is hard to forget.
Still an unfathomable experience.”
