Showboy did not hold back in his criticism of the students involved in coordinating the event, expressing his disappointment, particularly towards those from the University of Ghana, Legon.
He went so far as to predict that students who failed to advocate for his inclusion in the event lineup would inevitably face academic challenges, a bold statement reflecting his passion for his craft and his belief in his status as one of Ghana's premier performers.
In his tirade, Showboy asserted that he possesses the talent and charisma to outshine any Nigerian artist, emphasising that there was nothing Mayorkun could present that he could not deliver with even greater impact.
The musician's claims underline his commitment to promoting Ghanaian artistry on prominent platforms.

Showboy remanded in police custody
Showboy has reportedly been arrested and remanded by the court in police custody for two weeks following a violent altercation with his former signee, Kaytee.
The incident, which has drawn significant media attention, saw both Showboy and Kaytee handcuffed and taken to a police station, where they are expected to serve their time.
As co-founder of the AMG Business record label alongside Criss Waddle, Showboy acknowledged that both he and Kaytee are facing the repercussions of their reckless behaviour, which culminated in their arrests.
Their entanglement in this violent incident not only highlights the struggles within the music industry but also serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of unrestrained tempers and public altercations.
