In 2022, Mzbel and Abeiku Santana, two staunch supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), were embroiled in a public feud after the media personality made some derogatory comments about the Awoso Me hitmaker.
What happened between Mzbel and Abeiku Santana?
While interviewing budding artist Chief One on the Ekwanso Dwoodwoo show on Okay FM, the Deputy GTA CEO referred to Mzbel as a "former artist" after the young star stated he wished to work with the music legend.
Abeiku Santana's comments earned him significant backlash from the veteran singer, her fans, and former friend Nana Tornado.
Mzbel went on to hold a Facebook Live session to rebut his claims and list her accolades.
She also accused the former Okay FM presenter of playing a role in an attempt to sabotage her music career and business opportunities on multiple occasions because she did not fawn over him.
Abeiku later apologised for the unfortunate statement and acknowledged his mistake in a post he shared on Facebook. He shared a photo of Mzbel with the caption:
"I’m sorry for calling Mzbel a former artiste."

Mzbel also recounted the alleged remarks Abeiku made about her to some prominent individuals he encountered in the past.
She said:
"I don't have any problem with Abeiku Santana. He said something I didn't like, and I responded to him accordingly. If someone shows their true colours to you or against your brand, there is no need to have anything to do with him."
"Before he called me a former musician, he had previously said some other things about me. He had already spoiled my name on several occasions. I heard them but I did not take them serious because I didn't hear him make those comments."
Mzbel claimed to have missed out on several past opportunities due to the actions of the former media personality.
