Why MIB terminated Stevo Simple Boy's contract

Singer Stephen Otieno Adera, as Stevo Simple Boy, had his contract with Men in Business Management Company (MIB) terminated.

The Kibera-based rapper and MIB have now entered a 35-day transition period, the group said in an interview with author Samuel Maina. According to MIB, the members' two-day meeting was the catalyst for the decision to end the contract.

“Following the unrightful and unlawful allegations, and a lot of lies that have been put through that have destroyed the company’s reputation, that is why the whole team has sat down and come up with the decision that we should just get out of the contract,” MIB representative said.

He added, ”We are going to follow the lawful processes the right way that could have been followed from the beginning.

The process we will take is a lawful one and a fair one for the transition to take place within the 35 days.”

The management claimed that after Grace Atieno, the wife of Stevo Simple Boy, made serious accusations against the business, team members started discussing their options over the weekend.

After Grace Atieno, the wife of Stevo Simple Boy, made serious accusations against the business, the management said that decision-making discussions among the team members started over the weekend.

“Everybody came to a final conclusion. It’s not because of the allegations, and we don’t want to protect ourselves in any way. We just want to set the artist free for a good future also. The allegations are quite worrying as much as the company has put out much,” MIB said.

A day after the charges were made public on a well-known YouTube vlog, the management disclosed that they held a meeting with Stevo.They said that the artist verified the company has supported him from the beginning and claimed he was pressured to go against it.

“We gave him some advice. We told him that any decision that will come from our side he should take it positively and any decision that will come from his side we will also take it positively.”
