Adeniran speaks about Wizkid's son

She said:

“His mum made the right choice. He should focus on his education first before diving fully into music. He hasn’t even finished secondary school yet. Education helps build discipline and structure, and it also sharpens creativity and critical thinking. It even helps with life balance. You can usually tell the difference between an educated artist and one who isn’t.”
