Popular Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has claimed that singer Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, known professionally as Wizkid,’s recent social media outburst was due to the pain of losing his mother.
Recall that Lagos Local News reported that Wizkid set social media platform X on fire last week after shading Don Jazzy and engaging in a heated exchange with Davido.
Edochie, while reacting to the incident, revealed that singer Wizkid's outburst was due to psychological issues.
The controversial actor made this known in a video message shared via his Instagram page. He said the majority would not comprehend what was happening to Wizkid. But I will let you know that it’s the pain of losing his mother.
He is passing through the pain of losing his mother. It’s a horrific pain. You see the pain of losing someone you love? It’s a horrific pain. It’s a pain that would make you ask God questions. It’s a pain that would make you question life itself. It’s a pain that would make you throw caution to the wind. It’s a pain that makes you sometimes want to even take your life.
It’s a pain that would make you sometimes become even more disrespectful and just say a lot of things. It's a pain that would even make you question your existence. You lose your mother, and you lose your sanity. It’s a horrific pain. And that’s what's happening to Wizkid.
Regrettably, we live in a world that would even give you more discomfort than love.
It was gathered that Wizkid’s mother, Jane Dolapo Balogun, passed away on August 18, 2023, in London.
The Starboy Entertainment boss affirmed that the pain of losing his mom ‘hurts deeply’. He said, “The pain is profound.”
