The tweet recently caught the attention of many Nigerians and see some reactions below;
@DanielRegha: Most upcoming artistes plead with Wizkid to assist ’em, some just want a shout-out not a collab but he keeps snubb!ng most of ’em cos he’s a top artiste; Wizkid FC can try c¤ncealing the truth by calling it maturity but it’s just pr!de. Humility pays, Wizkid should remember that.
@AimThaMachine_: Whatever you do in this life, do not underestimate yourself. This was Wizkid begging MI Abaga in 2010 to look at his side. Always believe in yourself!
NB: 2010 was the biggest year for MI Abaga across Africa and by far the only African Artist repping Africa.
