The 15th edition of the recently held Headies Awards has come and gone, but it seems to have heightened the rivalry between two upcoming Nigerian artistes and arch-rivals.
Ruger and BNXN, who had been going for each other’s jugular on social media in what looks like a show of supremacy, were nominated in the same keenly sought-after category at the award.
At the end of the ceremony, BNXN edged Ruger to clinch the coveted Next Rated category, and it came with a brand new Bentley ride.

Noticing this didn’t go down well with Ruger, popular show promoter, Kogbagidi, tried to bring the two singers together after the show.
The move, however, did not achieve the desired result, as fans of one of the two talented singers went online to level favouritism allegations.
The link-up video between Ruger and BNXN, rather than bring about a truce, also saw followers of the latter taking further digs at the former.
A netizen identified as Tinnywiz01 said, “Omo that next Rated dey pain person.”
Another Instagram user, Slimdaddyjaydee wrote, “Make Ruger no steal him Award.!. Remember na pirate.”
Iam_jozimilez added, “Why him no go run, Ruger fit break his leg.”
While Iam_obdee wrote, “It’s not easy sha..E dey pain person ooo. But them go still flex e no matter.”
