The group members included- Eddy Remedy (also known as Eddy Montana), Eedris Abdulkareem and Tony Tequila, despite finding success in the late 90s, they went their separate ways in the early 2000s.

Reacting to the revelation via his social media page, Tony Tetuila said Abdulkareem and Eddy Remedy ganged up against him contrary to his claims.

He said he was ā€œheartbroken and shatteredā€ after he was kicked out of the band.

Tetuila said Daddy Showkey and Blackfaceā€™s encouragements and support helped him to build a solo career.

He said, ā€œEedris connived with Eddy and kicked me out of The Remedies despite the fact that it was my mum who brought the money that was used to sponsor the group in the beginning. I was so heartbroken and shattered. It was Daddy Showkey who encouraged me and told me that I could do it alone.

ā€œBlackface was another person who helped me. He brought me close and taught me how I could write my own songs. Blackface is a very great guy. Iā€™d never forget the role he played in my career.

ā€œItā€™s same Eedris thatā€™s coming out to lie that he made sacrifices for the [Nigerian music] industry.ā€

Meanwhile, Eddy Remedy, a former member of The Remedies, claimed that the money Eedris Abdulkareem collected from Tony Tetuilaā€™s mum wasnā€™t used in sponsoring the group.
