Opinion: Wale Gates is a trash talker – Cynthia Morgan




United Kingdom-based comedian, Wale Gates, may have stepped on the wrong toes when he tried to diss dancehall queen, Cynthia Morgan, for saying she wouldn’t date any Nigerian entertainer.

Cynthia, in the interview, had said she wouldn’t date any of her colleagues because they are broke and of course, Wale didn’t waste time to ‘yab’ her on twitter.

His response did not go down well with the reggae singer as she lashed back at him. In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the fair-skinned singer said she does not know the comedian.

She added that her comment wasn’t any of his business and wondered why he would butt into her affairs.

“Wale Gates is not even my colleague. I don’t know him. The only thing I know about him is that he talks a lot on twitter. I don’t have any issues with him. I cannot have a problem with somebody that I don’t know. He is known for trash-talking a lot on twitter. There was a time he actually said some insulting things about my governor, Adams Oshiomhole.

“I stand by my words; I cannot date an entertainer not to talk of getting married to one. I would prefer to have a relationship outside the industry. In as much as I think that if you date someone in the industry, they would understand you better, I cannot date my colleague. When I said that my colleagues were broke, I was not generalising because I exempted some people. The fact that Wale had insulted my governor and also snooped into my business got on my nerves because he is not my colleague and what I said has nothing to do with him. If I don’t know you and we do not relate, I don’t expect you to comment on anything that regards me,” she said.
