I never had any romantic relationship with Omobutty, CuteAbiola clarifies

Skit creator Abdulgafar Abiola, popularly called CuteAbiola has addressed long-standing rumours surrounding a speculated romantic involvement with popular actress Biodun Okeowo, also known as Omobutty.

The rumors, it was gathered originated from a past skit where CuteAbiola was photographed with his hands on Omobutty’s waist, triggering a wave of conjecture regarding their relationship.

Despite the passage of time since the incident, CuteAbiola has taken the opportunity to firmly assert that their association was purely professional, devoid of any romantic undertones.

In a recent statement, he clarified, “In his statement, he said “Keeping quiet at that time didn’t mean I did what people said I did. Then who are you to force me to come and explain what happened and what never happened? People just cooked up stories and started flying it around as the real picture of things. Nothing of such happened between us”

CuteAbiola explained that he chose not to address the rumors immediately, adopting a strategy of allowing the speculations to naturally subside.

He further emphasised his reluctance to engage with baseless stories, particularly those circulating on social media platforms.

The skit maker categorically dismissed alleged Instagram conversations, which were presented as evidence of a romantic connection, as entirely fabricated.

He noted that the aftermath of the rumors took a toll on the relationship between him and Omobutty, leading to a temporary cessation of communication between them during the height of the controversy.
