Now, five years after Hushpuppi’s arrest, Daddy Freeze has addressed his relationship with him. He stated that he considered Hushpuppi a friend, even while harboring doubts about the legitimacy of the source of his wealth.
“Hushpuppi has never given me money before, not even $1. But Hushpuppi gave me friendship when nobody wanted to be my friend because they believed I was the devil.
“ The first time I met Hushpuppi was when I was picked with some influencers to go to Dubai, and I’d already started the movement then (#FreeTheSheepple) but the influencers didn’t like me. And that was the time the church that I attended for 10 years rejected me. Everybody rejected me. Then Hushpuppi sends me a DM that ‘where are you, come over”, he said in a new video shared by Tunde Ednut.
“So we hung out with some of our friends and we gist, took pictures, and put them on his Snapchat. So, why won’t I be friends with someone who was my friend, how am I going to be angry with him? I might have guessed that his money was not legit. But Davido in one of his songs said ‘dey for who dey for you”.
