Simi, the singer, has expressed her displeasure with a Twitter user who accused Adekunle Gold of ripping off Burna Boy.
In a Monday Twitter thread, a user identified as Benny claimed that Gold has “formed the habit of wearing similar outfits” with Burna Boy.
Gold, according to Benny, has also been imitating the African Giant’s style, pose, and patterns.
The user expressed disappointment that the singer’s “plagiarism is so obvious and annoying.”
Benny was responding to a tweet shared by kickboxer Israel Adesanya during his post-match party with Gold.
He also included photos of Burna Boy and Gold dressed similarly in the post.
“The Burna Boy plagiarism is really so obvious and very annoying at this point. man can’t you just be yourself? same posture, same glasses, same smile. Wtf? it’s been going on for a while now and we need to speak on it,” the user wrote.
“Now he’s already linking with Odg’s pals. The most annoying part of it all is that he doesn’t acknowledge that he copies Odg in any way.
“Y’all really want to say this is a coincidence?! LMAOO, na to go sing Last Last remain for am.”

Defending her husband, Simi insinuated that the user chose to be a “troll” because of “idleness”.
The singer also said people who have good things going on in their lives wouldn’t be talking “nonsense” on social media.
“People that have good things going on in their lives really never do shit like this,” the ‘Duduke’ crooner wrote.
“And that’s facts for everyone. When you come on the internet talking nonsense about anyone minding their damn business, your life is most likely sad and you’re distracting yourself. So it’s you I’m sorry for.”
