Odumodublvck, whose real name is Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu, demanded that Obi make a promotional video for the album, arguing that he deserves it for his loyalty and support during the 2023 election.

Despite the backlash, the move has undoubtedly generated buzz around his album.

Odumodublvck’s post on X read, “@PeterObi HELLO MR PETER OBI. I SUPPORT YOU THAT YEAR. OYA SUPPORT ME NOW. OYA DO VIDEO DEY TALK THE MACHINE IS COMING. ABEG. ME AND YOU NEVER EVER GET PROBLEM BEFORE. MAKE E NO START NOW”.The rapper’s fans have been divided on the issue, with some defending his right to ask for support and others feeling that he is being disrespectful to Obi.

The rapper’s move has been seen as a reflection of the complex relationship between entertainment and politics in Nigeria, where celebrities often look for endorsements from influential figures. Whether or not Obi will respond to Odumodublvck’s plea remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – the rapper has certainly generated buzz around his album.

The debate surrounding Odumodublvck’s move has highlighted the challenges of navigating the intersection of politics and entertainment in Nigeria. While some see the rapper’s demand as a legitimate request for support, others view it as an attempt to exploit Obi’s influence for personal gain.
