Fella Makafui has broken her silence concerning the viral video which captures her enjoying a lit cigar from D-Black “who’s like a brother to me”.

She spoke to Andy Dosty on Hitz FM’s morning show.

“I wouldn’t want to channel my energy into this whole thing,” the actress first noted, stressing D-Black “is my big brother”.

She explained she “went there with my friends to chill” among “thousands of people in the club”.

With a smile, Fella said she had “no comments” for her ex-husband Medikal who has expressed great displeasure for the footage.

“Funny enough, I don’t remember the last time I went to the club until that day,” she added. “I hardly… I hardly go to clubs.”

“I just think I have outgrown a lot of things, honestly,” the occasional singer explained. “And I find so much peace and time with my business than anything else.”

“I’m not saying people who go to the clubs don’t have jobs or whatever but personally, I’ve just outgrown a lot of things,” Fella Makafui clarified, as she also observed the irony of her first club outing in a while ending in controversy.

The social media star revealed what took her to the club in the first place.

“I mean, I had my influencer friends from Nigeria who came in and I mean, we even went to Republic. We went to a lot of places [and] I just hit my brother [D-Black] up and was like: ‘Bro, chale, my friends are in, could you kindly host us?’ He said, yes. I mean, he gave us free drinks and all. I mean that was just it,” she elaborated.

Before the moment seen in the video, it had been “about a year” since she last saw D-Black, she revealed.

Rapper D-Black is the owner of a popular night club in East Cantonments called Onyx.

Rapper Medikal, born Samuel Adu Frimpong, has a child with Fella Makafui called Island – she turns four in August. The two were married in March 2020 until March 2024 when Medikal announced on social media they had parted ways.

"Fella is no longer my wife; she is the mother of my child. We are now co-parenting, and everything is going well," he wrote on X.

Also, filmmaker Fella no longer identifies herself as Mrs Frimpong in her Instagram biography.

When Medikal saw the viral video of Fella and D-Black enjoying cigars together, he attacked the latter on social media and added a diss track. In an interview, he told 3Music TV's Culture Daily crew what D-Black did, sharing a cigar with Fella, was "disrespectful," even comparing it to him hypothetically having an affair with "b*t*h a** n***a" D-Black's partner.

While some believe these are genuine misunderstandings, a section of the public insist these events are orchestrated to market Medikal's debut concert at the Indigo 02, London, May 3, 2024. 

Fella Makafui's latest production is a movie titled Resonance. See the trailer below:
