Nigerian rapper, Zlatan Ibile has moved to clarify a recent misunderstanding with fellow Afrobeats star Seyi Vibez, insisting there was no intention to insult or provoke the singer.

In a post on X, Zlatan wrote, “It actually hurts that my brother thinks I would diss him in anyway. It’s literally a misunderstanding. @seyi_vibez it’s all love bro, when you’re ready to talk it out I’m here !! ❤️4L ABURO MI”.

The message — which addresses Seyi Vibez directly and offers a private conversation — signals a conciliatory tone.

By inviting a one-on-one discussion and calling the younger artist “aburo mi” (my younger brother), Zlatan prioritised reconciliation over public drama, a notable stance in Nigeria’s competitive music scene where disputes often play out on social media.
