For those wondering, 3M naira is equivalent to 20,000USD and about 13,000 GBP
Fortune
must really be smiling on the newest kid on the block in the music
scene in Nigeria at the moment and if possible, for a very long time; I
am talking about no other person than Ayo Balogun Ibrahim known in the
entertainment industry as Wizkid “Weezy”. There is no doubt in the fact
that he is right now the best thing happening in the music industry at
the moment. Since his debut album “Super Star”, he has been head lining
musical concerts and growing from strength to strength which makes him
the envy of all other artistes at the moment. This also means more money
to the singer. Just recently, he was contacted to perform at an Oando
sponsored event which was held at the city hall penultimate week where
he performed alongside O4kasibe crooner DJ Zeez.
It
will interest you to know that he was paid a whopping N1.5million for
his less than 1hr performance; but just after his performance and he was
about leaving the stage, the MD/C.E.O of Oando PLC, Mr. Wale Tinubu,
beckoned on the young singer and told him to continue and as a result,
eyewitness said an additional #1.5million was added to his fee. The
elated Wizkid obviously amazed and short of words sang Wale Tinubu's
praises to heaven. He was heard singing something like “Uncle Wale, Wan
bad gan; Uncle Mi, Uncle Wale wan bad gan”. If Na you nko, sey you no go
turn hip hop music to Fuji, not when you see the money involved. It's
your time bro; make you spend it well and not laolao like they say.
