We know that a significant number of Nigerian artists smoke weed, so it's not surprise that Wizkid could be associated with it. However could it be true that the Starboy Records label head was arrested over the weekend for smoking weed in a Kenyan hotel?

Kenyan publication, Standard Digital reports that the Nigerian music star was smoking weed inside the Nairobi Crown Plaza hotel where smoking is not allowed. Things went downhill after the hotel staff confronted Wizkid and the police had to get involved.

“Visiting Nigerian singer Wizkid was arrested from his Nairobi Crown Plaza Hotel room on Saturday afternoon and quizzed by police only hours before his flight back to Lagos.

The arrest was in connection with allegations that he was caught smoking illegal substances. The incident happened at around 1pm just as the Caro singer was checking out of his hotel room where he has been staying for a week, since his last week’s concert.

Before police officers cuffed him and drove him to Capital Hill Police Station where he was quizzed, the hotel had already charged him with 50,000 Kenyan Shillings smoking penalty, which he paid through his credit card.

Coming to his rescue was his newly found Kenyan flame Victoria Kimani, who followed him to the police station shortly after he had been arrested. Victoria had been with the singer at the hotel the previous day. Wizkid was due to leave for Lagos at around 3pm and was forced to cancel the flight due to the drama.”

There's been no word from Wizkid or Victoria Kimani about the alleged incident.
