In an Instagram video, Osebo said there was nothing wrong with the outfit Cina Soul wore in her video shoot. He condemned attempts to body-shame her and encouraged her not to feel bad.
He also described her as unique and beautiful, adding that if she were his woman, he would proudly take her everywhere, a playful remark that he followed up with a hearty laugh. In the caption of the post, he further wrote:
"@cina_soul I love you ok, trust me your body is worth more than diamonds 💎 and pearls, forget naysayers cos you are on track 🥰."
The controversy started during a holiday edition of EQuick with Akosua Takyiwa on Max TV. The host, Akosua Takyiwa, introduced Cina Soul’s fashion as a topic and said she was disappointed in the singer’s style. She then invited the panelists to share their opinions.
Actor Big Akwes was one of the guests. He made harsh comments about Cina Soul’s appearance, using disrespectful language. His words focused on her petite stature and outfit, drawing laughter from other panelists.
Cina Soul had recently released her album Did I Lie on March 14, 2025. She later expressed her frustration on social media after the drama, saying the media should focus on her work instead of her clothing.
After backlash from the public, Akosua Takyiwa addressed the issue on Max TV’s morning show. She apologised to Cina Soul on behalf of the station but blamed Big Akwes for the offensive remarks. Many Ghanaians rejected her apology, calling it insincere and an attempt to avoid responsibility.
