"Intimacy has been misconstrued. Why does everyone think intimacy connotes sex? What a horny frequency. Anyways in this context, intimacy means shared secrets and 'one corner' means even catching me in the corner with someone," he wrote.

"Igboro na streets. We don enter trenches severally. Oh well this is the first time in years that people are talking about the LATE GOLDIE. Damn we should have a good laugh about this. Signed management."
