He wrote, “Four judges were having a real conversation… who even called you to jump in? Stop poking your nose everywhere trying to play the hero- this isn’t some WhatsApp group drama. People like you only speak up when someone else’s name brings you relevance. This wasn’t your scene, but you forced an entry like you mattered."

I built this body, this name, this attitude-brick by brick, rep by rep. You call it substances, I call it substance. I don’t need sympathy-l need space to dominate and you Stay in your lane."
