Brothers Abimbola 'Bola' and Olabinjo 'Ola' Osundairo open up about their involvement with the Jussie Smollett hate crime hoax from January 2019 in a Fox Nation interview.

"A friend of mine had sent me a screenshot of the front page of, I believe a TMZ article, that showed that Jussie had been attacked. I ran to my brother and was like, ‘Yo, mission accomplished. We did it,’" Bola recounted in the five-part series."Now we've secured the payment of our $500 that he owes us because he only wrote us a check of [sic] $3,500, and that was the day we were supposed to leave for Nigeria.

Bola said he and Ola were heading out of the country for an audition for a popular TV series at the time.Jussie Smollett's $3,500 check to Abimbola"Bola" and Olabinjo"Ola" Osundairo. Smollett alleged the"White supremacists" - or the brothers in disguise, rather - threw chemicals on him and put a noose around his neck, while shouting racially and homophobically-charged slurs and telling him he was in"MAGA country.""You know Eddie Johnson [former Chicago Police Superintendent] said he could tell in the footage that you guys are Black, right?"
