Wizkid often mentions his family, both in his interviews and his music. Even though his mother gets a little bit more attention, he does not forget about his father. They seem to have a very nice and healthy father-son relationship, which is what everyone needs in their life.
Once, Wizkid shared a picture of his dad when he was young, and you cannot help but see the family resemblance. Both men have very strong and handsome features. No wonder one has three wives and the other has two baby mamas!
Wizkid also shared a picture of both his parents, which made many of his fans very happy. Later, he shared that he was going to have a tattoo commemorating his father. This only further proves how much love and respect there is in that family.
However, despite being such a loving son, Wizkid managed to miss a very important event. On April 9, 2017, Wizkid father received a religious leader title Mogaji Adinni. The ceremony was held at the Oluwaseyi Mosque on its 50th anniversary. Mr. Balogun’s contribution to the mosque and the development of Islam earned him this title.
But Wizkid’s fans, who managed to find out about this event, were disappointed to find out that their favourite star failed to show up. It turned out that Wizkid was shooting a music video with Drake titled Come Closer and was all the way over in London. Some say that Wizkid either showed up at the very end of the ceremony, or congratulated his father over the phone.
