Social media is buzzing after up-and-coming influencer and content creator Kolu publicly called out comedian and musician Carter Efe over what he sees as a missed opportunity to link him with music mogul E-Money.
The drama reportedly started after Carter Efe gifted singer Peller a brand-new car, a generous move that quickly went viral. Kolu, however, took to social media to express his disappointment, suggesting that when someone has a connection especially one as influential as E-Money, they should carry their friends and collaborators along.
In his post, Kolu wrote: “When connection dey, you suppose carry your people along.” Fans immediately started debating whether his remarks were fair or a sign of entitlement.
Supporters of Kolu argue that in creative industries like music and entertainment, networking and mentorship are key, and Carter Efe had an opportunity to help a fellow content creator get a big break. “If you have the chance to lift someone, why not?” one fan commented.
On the other hand, critics insist that expecting someone to automatically connect you with an industry heavyweight just because you know them is pushing boundaries. “Connections are a privilege, not an obligation,” argued another social media user.
This is not the first time Carter Efe has faced scrutiny for his high-profile generosity. His recent gifts and collaborations have made headlines, but they also bring questions about fairness, influence, and responsibility in the entertainment world.
While Carter Efe has yet to publicly respond to Kolu’s callout, the exchange has already sparked a larger conversation about networking etiquette in the Nigerian music and influencer scene. Many observers note that while supporting friends and peers is admirable, there’s also a fine line between encouragement and entitlement.
The situation continues to trend on social media, with memes, debates, and reactions flooding platforms as fans weigh in. Whether this will escalate into a bigger feud or remain a lighthearted callout remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: people are paying attention, and everyone wants to see what happens next.
