He continued by hoping that Wizkid would one day by the grace of the ancestors make music that would be recognised by the award body.

Taking to the caption, the singer revealed that he was prepared to school ignorant fans who do not believe him simply because he is not their fave and they do not know the difference between an album and a music video.

Excerpt from his post read:

"Today is the day for the ignorant. I told you. I am the chairman of haters. You don’t want to believe I will prove it today. I am even more petty than you jobless people all over my page. I am a Nigerian. I grew up in KALAKUTA and also an ARSENAL FAN. Una never plenty reach. This one na dragging? You can’t drag me because I no dey una hand like una fav yeyebrities."

Seun Kuti shades Wizkid's Award

Seun said he was one of the four Nigerians who were nominated for a Grammy award. He stated this during a live video on IG after a follower said he does not sing good songs.

According to him, featuring on a Grammy award-winning song does not make the person a nominee.

The young musician also noted that Grammy organisers called him to enter their show.

Wizkid posted a photo of his Grammy plaque on his Instagram story, and on it, it was boldly written that he won the award for Best Music Video alongside Beyonce and Blue Ivy for Brown Skin Girl.

This caused an uproar on social media with internet users praising the singer. Others also called out fellow music star, Seun Kuti, who had claimed Wizkid didn’t qualify to be called a Grammy winner because the song belonged to Beyonce.
