A viral video capturing an elderly man’s bold declaration that Grammy-winning artist Wizkid is his biological son has ignited widespread reactions and speculation on social media.
The dramatic moment unfolded during a church service at Revelation of God Fire Ministry, where a preacher claimed to have received a divine revelation about the man’s background. In response, the elderly attendee affirmed the prophecy by making a startling statement:
“Wizkid na my son. Na Balogun marry hin mama. Look me well, I am the father of Wizkid,” he proclaimed, sparking murmurs throughout the congregation.
Wizkid, whose real name is Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, has never publicly acknowledged any father figure aside from his late mother, Morayo Balogun. The man’s claim has drawn both ridicule and intrigue, with many online users doubting its credibility and accusing the church of staging the event for attention.
Social Media Reactions
- Kadmaye wrote: “This pathetic pastor is setting this poor man up. Even if he were truly Wizkid’s dad, Wizkid would disown him. The only parent he ever recognized was his late mom, Morayo.”
- MemeVoss commented: “The man might not be lying. Wizkid doesn’t resemble either of the parents we know.”
- Cryptobull_runs noted: “Only Wizkid’s late mother could’ve confirmed this. Now we may never know.”
- Iam_fizy added: “He actually does resemble Wizkid. Baba, fight for your rights. We dey your back!”
- TerfaTG joked: “The resemblance is wild. Just give him a mic and tell him to say: ‘She tell me say’—if he nails it, case closed!”
The bizarre claim has left many Nigerians amused and divided, with calls for a DNA test from some and outright mockery from others.
