From being trailed with allegations of dating Tiwa Savage , to his baby mama dramas, Nigerian artiste Wizkid is one celebrated entertainer who is hardly fazed by controversies. In the heat of intense social media ruckus, the self-proclaimed Star Boy is always unbothered.
On why he doesn’t react to controversies, Wizkid said in a chat with ThisDay Style “Only a stupid man will go around trying to prove a point to the world and even at that, you’ll find that you can’t please everyone, that you cannot live off of people’s opinions.
I think once you understand yourself and your true essence, nothing will faze you, people’s opinions won’t faze you. I’m just more of a private person, and I handle situations in that manner”.
TheNewsGuru recalls that back in 2020, Wizkid recounted his experiences with police brutality, saying he was once arrested, harassed, and slapped by operatives in university before he became famous.
The 30-year-old music star brought the revelation to light during an interview with Naomi Campbell, an English model.
“I’m so happy that racism and police brutality has become part of our conversations. I felt great seeing what was happening. I’ve been harassed by the police countless times before I could get away from it for being me,” he said.
