In an exclusive chat entertainment analyst, Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh, he said,

"Sadiq and Stonebwoy’s issues started from the Abeka Sallahfest show, and now escalated into this. The tweets so far, have been unnecessary and I believe since the matter is now heading to court, they keep their comments off social media and the media until the case is settled. The feud is not between them alone. Both of them have fans and loyalists. We need unity amongst these fan bases not more division."
