“Title of this movie should be called “The last visit dis, 9 ” Gonna be very hard to trust another human being @HowI wish I could go back in time and ignore your DMs.. Atleast I wouldn’t be seen as cr*zy and a liar, But I guess we have to go through some things to learn a lesson and I’ve learned mine the hard way.. If you gave me any sort of money through out that unfortunate friendship or whatever we had…. we’d have said ok I liked you enough to come around whenever you said you wanted us to hang cause you were doing stuff for me..


You did suspicious things whenever we hung but I ignored cause I didn’t want to believe you weren’t what you were portraying to me, You took advantage of my niceness, lied bout your personality and tried to forcefully take away everything I have and still stalking me till date cause I came out to tell the world everything. shoulda remembered you’re a damn man! I’m not even the first you done this to, the rest are too scared to speak up but are lined up in my DMs telling me their stories.

We both know the truth but tell the world whatever, sue me, imprison me, twist the
story, send people to k!! me….. but one thing
about Nickie is she won’t be quiet, I have
created awareness and hoping others don’t fall victim”

Among the picture slides she shared, Nicki dabarbie added two screenshots of her conversation with Skiibii, where she could be seen accusing the singer of using ‘juju’ on her in order to make her like him. Skiibii on the top other hand was clearly in disbelief, as he continuously asked why she was doing this.
