The music executive explained that after attaining fame and financial success, he decided to revisit a chapter of his life that had troubled him for years.

Rather than simply moving on, he intentionally searched for the girls who had rejected him.

"I wasn’t good-looking during my secondary school days. Thank God for music because back then I was constantly being rejected by girls. But after I became successful, I went back to look for all the girls who rejected me," he said.

Legit.ng had earlier reported that the music mogul also hinted that his future wife may not be Nigerian.

During a lighthearted exchange with fans on Instagram, Don Jazzy responded to a supporter who described him as an African treasure.

The producer joked that he often feels connected to different African countries and may expand his search for love beyond Nigeria's borders.

According to him, Uganda and Tanzania are among the countries that have caught his attention.

“Sometimes, I feel like I’m Ghanaian, sometimes South African. Sometimes I feel like I’m Ugandan, even though I haven’t been to Uganda, and I hear it’s hot there.
