Nigerian ace singer and a former member of The Remedies, Eddy Remedy a.k.a Eddy Montana, has lambasted his ex-bandmate, Eedris Abdulkareem over his claim that he is the sole founder of the defunct music group (The Remedies).
Eddy Remedy, debunked Abdulkareem’s claim during an interview with popular media personality, Daddy Freeze recently.
He said, “That boy, Eedris Abdulkareem is a greedy boy. He has always been greedy. I formed the group and invited him into the group. The day he was coming, he brought Tony Tetuila. I had never met Tony in my life. I just saw a guy limping behind him.”
“When they got into my room, I asked him, ‘Who is this man?’ He now introduced Tony that he has been with him all this while. That was when Eedris was supposed to tell me that Tony’s parents have given him some money and he told them that he will take him to wherever he is going. He didn’t tell me that.”
“The rumours first started when we were on tour that Tony’s parents were sponsoring the group. No, they were not sponsoring the group. I had $5,000 that my parents sent to me from America in 1997.”
“They sent me that money to come and meet them but I insisted that I was to stay back in Nigeria to pursue my music career after graduating from Yaba Tech.”
“I used that money to sponsor the group throughout that period.”
Recall that Abdulkareem in a controversial podcast interview recently, claimed that he and Eddy were the original members of The Remedies, that they only accepted Tony Tetuila into the group out of pity after meeting him at a show in Ilorin, Kwara State.
For those who don’t know, The Remedies, was a music group formed in the late 90’s. It consisted of Eedris Abdulkareem, Tony Tetuila and Eddy Remedy.
