Ruger Wa Kayole: Meet the Kenyan man who resembles Nigerian Ruger, performs his songs at shows
Nigerian artist Michael Adebayo Olayinka aka Ruger has spoken out in response to his Kenyan impersonator.
Ruger stated on BBC Extra that he had no objections to ‘Ruger Wa Kayole’ singing his songs at concerts.
The Dior hitmaker stated that his Kenyan impersonator is simply trying to hustle and that he does not take issue to his sinKging his songs.
“I wish him well ooh! I’m happy for him, and he is making his piece. Everybody must eat. When people were telling me that have you seen this? I was just like the man is trying to hustle and he is actually promoting my songs in a way. He is not making his own songs and saying it’s Ruger who made the songs, so, at the end of the day, they will go back and stream those songs, and that is the most important thing.
Abeg, everybody should calm down,” Ruger said.
For the past few weeks, Tuger Wa Kayole has been making headlines, impersonating the original Ruger at different events in Kenya.
However, in a recent interview, the Ruger lookalike made it clear that he is a diehard fan of the Nigerian singer and that’s why he likes dancing and even performing his songs.
He mentioned that he started off as a dancer before his start started shining recently when people started comparing him to the original Ruger.
He opted to go with the flow and that is why he has been receiving a lot of attention from fans.
