This so called 7 Days Challenge raises more concerns about the approach than the issue itself.
Serious allegations should never be turned into public spectacles or social media campaigns designed to pressure individuals into responding under imposed timelines.
That is not justice—it is manipulation of public perception.
Alh Taye currency has built a name and legacy over time, and it is only fair that such a reputation is not subjected to trial by social media without proper evidence and due process.
If there are genuine grievances, there are structured and credible avenues to address them. Public ultimatums and online challenges only risk turning truth into entertainment and accountability into performance.
No one should be forced to respond under pressure just to satisfy public curiosity. Real truth does not operate on deadlines.
Only Alh. Wasiu Alabi Pasuma has the moral standing to speak on Alh. Taye Adebisi Currency—not just anyone seeking public attention.
There is nowhere written that one must help by force or grant interviews, it is purely a matter of personal choice, not obligation. Therefore, issuing a 7-day ultimatum is completely unprofessional and falls short of the standards expected in responsible journalism.
How do you publicly give such a respected figure a 7-day ultimatum to appear on your private platform—one from which you personally profit? That approach raises serious questions about intent, professionalism, and respect. Journalism should be guided by ethics, not pressure tactics.
In the end, every individual deserves the right to choose when and how to respond. That is the foundation of fairness and responsible engagements
Mr. Bamidele Adeyanju your program is commendable and has brought you well-deserved popularity, both personally and for your platform.
Kindly promote peace in addressing this challenge, rather than issuing directives.
Peace remains the most valuable asset any society can possess.
Thank you!!
