Adekunle Gold has explained the kind of relationship he had with Adesua Etomi before her marriage to RnB Singer, Banky W.

The Orente crooner has been romantically linked to Adesua after he asked her out on twitter, and the actress in response told him she would accept on condition that his tweet, get 50,000 retweets.

But the singer has laughed off the rumours, insisting they were platonic friend.

He told Punch, “People do not know if Adesua is just my friend. They wouldn’t know if my tweet was just banter or if it was real. I guess a lot of people thought it was real and I was asking Adesua out online.

Why would I do that? We were just joking and she is my friend. I even tweeted when she got engaged that I’d not even got the 50, 000 retweets she asked for and she was already engaged.

It was just banter but I guess people see what they want to see. Adesua and I never dated; we were/are just friends.”
