Nigerians have attacked a member of the defunct music group, Plantashun Boiz, Blackface for lashing out at Wizkid over his comments on police brutality which he posted earlier on Sunday via his verified Twitter account.
Recall that Wizkid had on Sunday lent his voice on the #EndSars campaign calling out President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to look into the brutality complains by Nigerians.
While responding to a message Buhari sent to the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, over his ill health, Wizkid said, “Donald Trump is not your business! Old man! Police/Sarz still killing Nigerian youth on a daily! Do something! Nothing concern you for America! Face your country !!”
Apparently, the Ojuelegba singer’s tweet did not go down well with Blackface and he made his feelings known via a series of tweets.
Blackface tweeted, “Why don’t you face your music small man? I understand why that is difficult because it doesn’t have any substance #ChildrenOfNowAdays

“No be every verified account the person name on top dey control So it is possible that that @wizkidayo account is being handled by an agent because I don’t believe Wizkid is that dumb to insult his father or his father’s mate(sic).”
Meanwhile, Blackface has attracted several bashing on social media for attacking Wizkid.

I thought I knew majority of Nigerian artists. Who is Black face? I'll have to look him up. But whoever he is,this is a dumb comment to make at this time given the situation of things.
