Nigeria is mourns the death of Nollywood actor Solomon Akiyesi, whose passing was confirmed on Monday.

The President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Abubakar Yakubu, disclosed that the actor died in his sleep on Sunday in Abuja.

According to Yakubu, Akiyesi “slept and did not wake up.” He added that the late actor’s body has been placed in a morgue in the capital as the guild awaits further information from his family. The exact cause of death has not yet been made public.

Akiyesi, who began acting in the late 1990s, appeared in more than 100 movies and became known for roles in Marry Who You Love, Deadly Affair, and Desperate Ladies. Tributes have continued to pour in on social media, with colleagues and fans celebrating his impact on Nigeria’s film industry.

Ghanaian versatile artist CityGod Aruu has publicly expressed disappointment over what he describes as his unexplained exclusion from the hit song “Monto,” a track widely associated with Kweisey Pee, in which he was featured.

In a recent interview on Despite Media’s NEAT F.M with Abena Moet, CityGod Aruu lamented that despite his alleged involvement in the creative process behind the song, his name was not featured or credited when the record gained mainstream attention. According to him, the situation has left his fans questioning the circumstances surrounding the release.

“Only Kweisey Pee can explain why my name was not included on ‘Monto,’” Aruu stated, hinting at unresolved issues behind the scenes. While he stopped short of making direct accusations, his remarks suggest a deeper concern about recognition and fairness within collaborative projects.

The song “Monto” has enjoyed notable success since its release, gaining traction across streaming platforms and within Ghana’s music circles. However, Aruu’s statement has now shifted part of the conversation toward transparency in crediting contributions, an issue that continues to surface in the creative industry.

Industry observers note that such disputes are not uncommon, especially among rising acts navigating collaborations without clearly defined agreements. Situations like this often highlight the importance of proper documentation, communication, and mutual understanding among artistes and their teams.

As of now, Kweisey Pee has not publicly responded to the claims. Fans and stakeholders alike will be watching closely to see whether clarification or resolution emerges in the coming days.

CityGod Aruu’s remarks add to the ongoing dialogue about artist recognition in Ghana’s evolving music landscape, where talent, collaboration, and credit must align to sustain trust and growth within the industry.

CityGod is currently out with two singles, “ Obaa Hemaa” and “Day Dreaming, Featuring Qwesi Ded Buddy.
