Nigerian Afrobeats sensation, Anthony Ebuka Victor, professionally known as Victony, has said that he will not allow anybody make use of him.
He made the statement through his official Twitter account after a social media user suggested that Grammy award winning Nigerian superstar singer, Wizkid influenced his style.
The tweet from Toheeb Showemimo, had quoted a video of the singer dressed like Wizkid and wrote; “He’ll come out one day and say “wizkid is not the source of my inspiration”

In reaction, the ‘Soweto’ hitmaker wondered why someone would think he is copying Wizkid simply because of an outfit.
