In a video shared online, the comic star, whose real name is Adams Kehinde , explained that his inability to speak fluent English led to his removal from the final documentary.
“I am responsible for my predicament because I don’t speak good English,” Lege said. “If I spoke good English, Seyi Tinubu would have included me among those who speak good English and are rich.”
According to Lege, Seyi Tinubu’s team had visited his home to record a goodwill message for the celebrant, but his clip was later omitted from the final production.
“They came to my house with cameras, recorded me, and I wished Seyi Tinubu a happy birthday. But Seyi’s aides removed my video. Don’t blame Seyi; it’s not his fault,” he clarified.
Despite the omission, Lege Miami maintained that he holds no grudge against Seyi Tinubu , whom he described as a good friend and “the president’s son.”
“Seyi is my paddy, he’s a good person. If I had packaged myself well or spoke better English, maybe they would include me,” he said. “Please stop tagging me over this matter; it’s unbearable. Seyi isn’t responsible for my English.”
Seyi Tinubu , son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, marked his 40th birthday on October 13 with a star-studded celebration attended by politicians, businessmen, and entertainers .
The birthday documentary featured goodwill messages from high-profile figures including Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola, Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, and Olamide , sparking online discussions after fans noticed Lege Miami’s absence.
