A fan commented on the post, writing:
"Wizkid is the face of Lagos. Baba Bolu always promotes Lagos."
Gawat answered, “Yes correct. We are proud of him.”
When another fan responded, "Ore oga nko?" (referring to Davido), Gawat wrote, "My Oga is proud of him."
Davido responded, quoting Gawat: "Bro, it's been a year, let it go… why is it still doing you... grow up.”
Davido then cited one of Gawat’s earlier tweets where he had said, "Ọrẹ Ọga wa ni," and wrote, "Since yesterday… let it go nah… cheer up."
A few hours later, the Essence hitmaker took to Elon Musk’s X to unleash harsh words at his opponents.
“Pvssyboys got enough da people in their crew to cry about! Add more tears, I think say all of una don de finish! Una still remain?
"Dem say album go swallow album dem Dey ground Dey smell now! Na our matter go Dey kill all of una one by one. Biggest.”
Legit.ng also reported that Spotify unveiled its annual rankings earlier this week, placing Wizkid at the top of Nigeria’s streaming list.
Shortly after Spotify’s announcement, Wizkid took to Instagram to react.
The singer reposted the chart on his Instagram story to his 18.4 million followers.
