Wizkid created an account for him, and later on, he met KCee, who showed him how to navigate the app.

Daddy Showkey wrote on his timeline:

“I had a special call today from @maleekberry and I shared a story of how @wizkidayo introduced me and also helped me open my Instagram account 😀 and how @iam_kcee also shared knowledge on how to navigate the app … life is about learning and applying the knowledge is key to the life we live now.”

Legit.ng previously reported that the veteran singer reacted to the order made by the Niger state governor, Mohammed Bago, targeted at individuals on dreadlocks.

Bago had given the directive during a stakeholders’ security meeting earlier in the week at the Niger State Government House, Minna.

Meanwhile, following intense backlash, the governor rescinded the directive.

In a video posted on his Instagram page on Thursday, Daddy Showkey strongly criticised the governor’s now-reversed order that directed security operatives in Minna to arrest and shave off the hair of anyone wearing dreadlocks, describing it as both unconstitutional and discriminatory.
