"Hey, I’m zeddy paul the guy behind the trending video on willy paul’s mother house . I would love to apologize for what I did . willy has always been my idol. It has always been my dream to work with him since my highschool days, I’ve done cover songs of his songs, tried reaching him through social media and his close links lakini haijai make . I decided to use this so I could reach him fast . I never intended for this to happen, I respect every parent and you willy paul. Quick recovery to your mum. I’m really sorry and I hope you take my reason for consideration."
