Ghanaian social media commentator Highest Eri has revealed that she was compelled to apologize for her remarks about rapper Medikal, even though she continues to stand by her original statements.

Speaking on Okay FM, Highest Eri clarified that the controversy surrounding her comments was not a publicity stunt but a genuine incident.

She explained that her involvement began after receiving a call from a third party and only learned that Medikal was the artist in question during a meeting at his residence.

Following the meeting, she said she signed an agreement and was instructed to release a press statement from Medikal’s camp.

The situation escalated when an old video resurfaced in which she described Medikal as “childish,” sparking public backlash.

Highest Eri disclosed that she was then contacted and pressured to issue an apology, which she reluctantly did.

Despite the public statement, Highest Eri maintains that she still stands by her original comments, emphasizing her preference for honesty over issuing insincere apologies.
