AYODEJI Ibrahim Balogun, also known as Wizkid has indirectly weighed on the AKA, real name Kiernan Forbes’ matter receiving threats from people assumingly are Nigerians via social media. AKA has since given a nod by retweeting the fellow African star.
The Nigerian singer and songwriter says that y’all want to go around preaching hate and fighting each other when the real problem is not even on social media.
“You clout chasing d**k heads! Fight the real problem, government, and poverty,” says Wizkid using the hashtag #SayNoToXenophobia.
On Wednesday AKA clarified the public misrepresentation of his football tweet, as a xenophobic attack. He’s also saddened by the notion that he dislikes or hates Nigeria or Nigerians and he claims he assured the public that he does NOT.
“At NO point do I say anything negative about Nigeria. If anything I’m saying the opposite – Nigeria is good at so many things, they’re winning! My frustration was in South Africa losing the football match,” says AKA.
The rapper has received numerous threats from people assumed to be from Nigeria saying they will “kill” him if he goes to that country.
“I am unsure how innocent tweets over football have been taken so greatly out of context. I am saddened by the notion that I, Kiernan Jarred Forbes, dislike or hate Nigeria/Nigerians – I do not. These words never came from me. I am disheartened that anyone would believe I have negative feelings towards Nigeria and her citizens, as nothing could be further from the truth,” says Super-Mega.
