Afrobeats star Wizkid loses mum

Afrobeats superstar and pop singer, Wizkid has lost his mother, Jane Dolapo Balogun. She died in the early hours of yesterday in London.

His mum, a formidable cornerstone of strength, lent unwavering backing to her son’s meteoric rise in the industry. Her steadfast support was a familiar sight on the periphery of concerts and events.

This devastating report comes months after the Singer’s mum attended an event where veteran fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall (KWAM1) performed. The video captured the moment KWAM1 recognized her presence as she joined him on stage and rained N1000 notes on her.
