Skales Fumes as Fan Claims Daughter Resembles Wizkid Amid Heat of Industry Feud: "Don't Try It Here"

  • Skales shared a heartwarming photo of himself and his young daughter, only for a fan to disrupt the moment
  • An X user identified as WisdomCN alleged that the toddler looks like Skales’ former label mate Wizkid
  • Skales did not take the comment lightly as he described it as "nonsense" and a violation of his family’s privacy

Nigerian singer Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, popularly known as Skales, has sent a warning to a X user who made an unexpected comment about his young daughter.

Skales had earlier posted a warm photo of himself and his little girl inside a car, calling her his “passenger princess” while expressing how much she meant to him.

The image initially drew many positive comments, until one reply shifted the mood entirely.

Skales shared a heartwarming photo with his young daughter, but an X user claiming she resembles Wizkid prompted him to warn the fan, calling the comment nonsense and a violation of his family’s privacy.

An 𝕏 user identified as WisdomCN quoted the photo and wrote,

“The girl too resemble Wizkid, very beautiful.”

While some may have seen it as harmless, Skales clearly didn’t. The singer, who has long kept his family life private, immediately replied with a stern warning.

The incident also arrived at a time when Wizkid’s name had been at the center of several controversies.

In an unrelated development, the ongoing clash between Seun Kuti and Wizkid intensified after Wizkid made a crude comment about Seun’s wife on social media.

The back-and-forth has dominated conversations online and may have influenced how Skales perceived the mention of Wizkid’s name in relation to his family.
