I hope she really deals with him, let the foolish ones who think they can just have babies and throw them away learn..

The most painful aspect is the way his brainless supporters are abusing the baby mama like she impregnated herself.

They forgot that one day, their daughter or sisters will be in this type of situation too.


That wizkid will learn the hard way cos if that girl should sue him, he will loose a lot of things starting from endorsements and his visa might even be revoked.

Someone should advice the irresponsible deadbeat dad to pay up.


I pity his dying career already.

SEONaijaExpert:
Shameless lady

One is busy making his life better while she's there trying to feel accomplished.

What has she achieved other than opening her legs for Wizkid, who knew her before that idiot who was thinking with his dick decided to pour and now making a mess of themselves. Celebrity but not role models.

what have you achieved all your life? Shouting Sai Baba isn't an achievement o.

APC is going down.... Never again will we have such satanic party rule us.

amjustme2:

Nnwane, you need the sleep most. Otutu oma!

MENTORCH:
Well he makes money no doubt, but it’s mostly in naira.

What about the Spotify millions of dollars his fans celebrated here?


That boy called Wizkid will learn to be careful when the baby mama finishes with him.

Ugosample:
now you are talking
that cannot be for one child alone

Sure and it's calculated according to your income.

Wizkid agreed to pay and have not been paying at all self.

Wizkid agreed to pay and have not been paying at all self.

livinbygrace:
Shut up your mouth and stop typing nonsense.$2000 is not small money both here in Nigeria and over there in America.Hoe many people can afford $2,009 even in America ?Mind you Davido pays 300,000 to his baby mama monthly ,so stop typing nonsense

Oga I said Davido's daughter school fees.


Since Wizkid knows all this why did he go ahead to impregnate a jobless lady? Let him enjoy his foolishness joor.


The issue is even that Wizkid has not been paying the agreed amount... $2000 is too small for wizkid to pay.

Olukat:
some ladies are playing for man united on their beds o Recklessness comes with huge responsibilities. Taking the baby mama biz to the US is a blonder he will ever regret.

u think say Don jazzy no wise?
Abi Dbanj and 2face stupid?

Wizkid is too careless aswear

orijintv:
Please what is the baby eating? Which cloth him wan wear wey 800k no fit buy for am in a month. Baby's accomodation? Really bro? So wizkid should go rent an apartment solely for the boy abi? What happened to the boys mothers apartment? Must wizkid do everything. Nigga pleasee

Oga the issues here is that wizkid have not been paying self, so it's different.


let him pay for one month first. the guy is careless and irresponsible

stagger:
The quality of a school is not measured by the fees that are paid there. $2000 is more than enough.

Yeah but as a son of an International celebrity, his son deserves better.


Were you expecting his son to attend a public school? The 2k dolls is too small. abeg

When did wizkid pay the money last?

tragergeorge:
your school fee from primary school till you finish university that na if you go o,plus baby food you eat ,e reach $2000 no lie oo,this is 9ja even for Yankee people de with kids wen dem de take good care of and their earnings no reach $2000 ,,,na for Der dem go pay bills pay tax....

Unfortunately, UK is not Nigeria.


Wizkid knew that things like this will happen yet he foolishly went along.


When that girl finishes with him en... hehehe

Ballmer:
Why not list how much your father paid in child support of all this name we do not know.



Why you no go collect the money from Whizkid pay the baby mama now ?

Unlike you, I wasn't given birth to out of wedlock.

My Dad is a responsible gentleman.

Ugosample:
is that Charlie sheen own for one chikd or children?

Sean combs makes on average 120m dollars per year, so that money is small change

You will pay according to your income and your tax guy can manipulate stuff so you pay less

That's why Wizkid is paying a paltry $2000 according to his income.


US/UK isn't Nigeria where anybody can misbehave. How I wish such rules can apply here, every jobless men will keep their penis in its position.

Xander85:
Just leave Biafra out of your useless rant! Your darling 'one Nigeria' that has the worst leaders on earth, why don't you likewise ask for it to be dismembered! Or idiotic leaders are only permitted in your 'one nigeria'?

The system and mode of governance in a new Biafra Republic would not give room for the type of characters and mediocrity we see in governance in Nigeria today!

Who and who will choose these mode of governance Is it not me and you? Is it not the corrupt politicians we still have?


You as an Igbo man that refer to Ebonyi people as WAWA IGBO and believe they arent Original Igbos want a Biafra? Won't the oppression and marginalization still continue


If corruption and marginalizations will still continue, why then are we pushing to form a new republic? Abeg

MENTORCH:
Where will he get the billions from, See the people you are comparing with Wizkid. Also all the amount you stated isn’t true.

From the endorsement, shows,clothes selling and the bragging he does in his music videos.


Those amounts are verified even though some of them are paying for 2 children.

stuffs4me:
This has got to be the dumbest post on the planet.


Those figures you posted are extreme cases of child support and does not in anyway represent the generality of cases. How may Americans can afford those figures.


Make una dey try use una brain sometimes abeg

What made the cases extreme? Is it not stupidity like this that results into the baby mama asking for more amount to be paid?


You need to use your sense first. Read the statement I quoted first. Anu

degab148:
Over #2M to learn what biko? Is she learning how to catch boko haram, armed robbers and dirty politicians after school? What are they teaching her in school? Over #2M, chai, this one don gimme headache

Bros na person wey no get money dey talk say Stout bitter.


Such schools are where connections starts from. Imagine your child and Dangote's child are class mates. Bro make we leave matter

Trexxsvg:
you're ryt but no going bck
the idiots in your region is closer and can be contain than the ones up north holding the country hostage

That's true so therefore sending Buhari back to Daura is a task every reasonable and patriotic Nigerian must partake in.

Corrinthians:
Did someone hack this one's account? So you're finally tired of blaming Afonja and Abøki.

I have never blamed any of those people you mentioned for the bad leadership in the East.


Be reasonable for once bros. Good morning

Airforce1:
$2000 is almost N800,000 in naira equivalent a month for baby mama binta diallo alone ..
That's huge

They both enjoyed the sex which resulted to pregnancy..
The upkeep of the child should'nt be on wizkid alone ..

Yeah they enjoyed the sex together and the lady said she have been working her arse off, if not how was she surviving all this while that Wizkid decided not to be responsible?


Can $2000 buy baby foods and clothes?
Can $2000 pay the baby's school fees?
Can it pay for the baby's accommodation?

Bro Davido's daughter school fees alone is more than 2million, so what's stopping almighty international Wizkid from paying such?

This APC factional chairman is stupid sha

Hakeem12:
OF PRINCES, PAUPERS AND THE TERRIBLE DANGER OF OVERSHADOWING ONE’S CHILDREN

Three themes here:

1. A normal person’s joy should be to see his/her children do a lot better in everything that he/she does in a lifetime.
2. However as we struggle through life, never looking back, and uprooting any barrier to our success, we sometimes ‘make it’ because we are daring, or because we know the price of failure having experienced poverty, such that our children live forever in our shadows - as mediocres – having never grown some spine or enough mental muscle. Some people also love it that way, and that is plain wicked.
3. The quest to measure up – at least in terms of fame – and to also make it big, quick and easy is driving children of the rich and accomplished into professions in entertainment, fraught with a lot of instability, and at the risks of lives unhinged.

I am compelled to write this by recent events. Of note is the trouble around David Adeleke, the self-acclaimed “Omo Baba Olowo” (rich man’s son), whose song is 100% about money, sex, fame, fortune, enjoyment and acquisition of earthly things. This is a boy who has carved a niche from himself , from the fabric of controversy and he does have a solid following among many Southern Nigerian boys. He is the one who wanted to smuggle his child out of Nigeria until he was stopped by Mr Dele Momodu, whom he later disgraced by calling him ‘my boy’ in an open concert where Dele was present. He is the one whose mobile police escorts shoot happily into the air when he was collected from Lagos airport. He is the one who mocked Paul Okoye about his house in 1004 Estates. He is there in every controversy.

Anyway, three of Davido’s friends and hangers on died within 5 days of each other. All of them were tragic cases. The first, Tagbo, died on his 35th Birthday. The other two died together in a car in the basement of an estate in Nigeria’s most expensive neighborhood – Banana Island. Police have said that the Tagbo died of Asphyxiation while items suspected to be hard drugs were found in the car with the other two dead young boys, one of which is the first son another billionaire oil magnate; Dapo Abiodun, CEO of Heyden Oil. Looking at Gbenga Abiodun’s picture, he looked like a gentle boy, not a druggie, but all of these boys lived in the fast lane, hopping from club to club, and hugging the night life big time, because that is what their ‘jobs’ demanded. It is also a matter of time before one’s friends influence one negatively. Gbenga was one of Davido’s Deejays, even though I learnt he had a car armoring business and was on the verge of opening a filling station and carwash. Anyway, he’s no more. Fine chap.

One of my favorite sayings is one that goes; “Every Prince Descends from a Pauper, and every pauper, from a prince”. Let us consider the import of this saying in some greater depth. First is to say there is a likelihood if you trace everyone’s history today, that those who are rich had some very poor ancestors, while those who are poor may likely have prosperous ancestors back in history. It just means that one needs to be careful. I recall some gatemen in a house I used to live. One boasted on end about how he is the son of one of the deceased Alara of Ilaramokin in Ondo State. The other boasted often of his father’s house at Ijapo Estate GRA, an exclusive area in Akure in the same state. The first one had a drug problem and was soon laid off. The second one is a dispatch rider at a bank today. There was another one among the gatemen, who came to Abuja from the East, precisely Ebonyi State. He never boasted of any such background, but today, he runs a depot where Nigerian Breweries supplies him drinks for the Lugbe community in Abuja. He turns over millions every month.

The danger is that those who are raised in luxury really have no incentive to strive and may therefore not continue the trajectory of their fathers who often struggled to become what they are. That is why they say it is difficult to keep wealth in a family beyond say three generations – except you have a way of passing on this kind of knowledge. Again, knowledgeable people – say in Europe, Japan, China and the USA – have been able to find their ways around this generational issue and to keep money long within a family. But here in black Africa, we have little clue. Some days back someone wrote on social media and asked where are the families of those long gone Yoruba big men whom musicians praised to high heavens. I once met one of Herbert Macaulay’s grandsons who was a cabbie in London. Herbert was a big man in his time.

But there is a deeper psychology. Privileged children may have seen it all and may not be able to understand why they need to hustle like their fathers as if lives depended on it because, well, their lives don’t. That is why parents who allow their children every possible luxury even as students – first class travel, best hotels around the world, the best designer clothes and shoes, the best cars and so on – are actually damaging the ability of the children to grow. There has to be a line drawn somewhere. Richard Branson spoke about how his children always travel Economy in the planes that he owns even if he and his wife are in First Class. That is how sensible parents raise their children. But in Nigeria, I know many people who brag about their children traveling business-class and being upgraded to First, just to resume university abroad! Others in the civil service are known to pack all their wives and children into business or first class on the bill of the country. I think it’s a sign of being primitive. I recently told my 14 years old son to stop using my perfume. Yes, it could be that petty. I asked him what he wants to use when he grows up if he has started splashing my Hermes which even I am ‘economising’, having bought it at great cost.

The story is told about the butterfly, how it struggles through the egg, lava, pupa stages of its development, and how the wriggling out of its hard shell forms its wings. Anyone that helps the butterfly to speed up the process will have a shapeless moth on his hands. But here, the noveau riche will have none of that. We have mums who go pop champagne in their children’s posh classrooms just to celebrate birthdays. It is not enough that these children attend classes with air-conditioning and everything in between.

We should have suspected. The private schools we send our children to, often teaches them everything foreign, and disconnects them from reality. A friend’s children on their first long holiday from Grange School in Lagos, told him how she and her friends had fixed a meeting for New Jersey, USA. He found himself scrambling for visas and tickets. No one teaches an African child how to drum or beat the gangan. That one is for villagers. We teach our children how to play the violin, and the piano, and how to be maestros of classic music. No one knows how to play ‘opon-ayo’ or any local games that we could have developed anymore. Today, 3 years old children are keying into Golf. It’s all about elitism and Nigeria’s new rich cannot wait to announce how they’ve arrived, and could never miss any opportunity to rub it in.

Which brings me to the crux of my write-up today;

Why are children of accomplished men unable to rise above their father’s achievements or even come close? Let me hazard some guesses:

1. The parents have overachieved so there’s no need trying because you’ll never catch up. So they just atrophy.
2. The long and hard route to success is no longer fashionable
3. Their fathers, in struggling to get rich never really raised these children for greatness, or at best their parents just pampered them.
4. Parents see their children as children even in old age. That is why today, parents spend untold millions for their children’s weddings even when they paid for their own weddings 100%
5. Well-to-do parents never allow their children venture out or take risks on time, so the children are not daring until they are exposed to bad influence maybe at university level
6. Young people mistake fame for real greatness or success

Anyway, we have a situation today where many children of valiant men have veered into music, dance, deejay-ing, makeup artistry, cooking, interior designing, ownership of intimacy gadget shops, acting, ownership of night clubs, organizing of beauty pageants and music shows, and so on. A lot of these professions are in and around entertainment, meaning that the public waits to feed off salacious tales from those industries. This means that today’s hero is tomorrow’s villain. Those who make you and prop up your image are also the ones who make a pig’s meal out of your reputation and sanity when the time comes

Whereas some of these new professions make money and fame, they tap into the ephemeralness of today’s world; a world seeking entertainment by all means. Is it that the options have been totally narrowed for the young people of today to make real differences in places that could really advance society? Are we not still a consumer nation that produces nothing of the things it uses? In the professions listed above, all the materials used are imported from abroad, meaning that the youth of today are not wired to solve our fundamental problems, but to kick the can down the road and generally consolidate those problems. How many are taking on our hard issues?

On the other side are the same children of today’s rich middle aged or ageing parents, who are stuck abroad – especially those ones conditioned by expensive private schools and made fit for employment in the Western World alone. Some of them have good jobs, but almost all of them complain of discrimination because they are reminded times without number that there are glass ceilings they could never breach as the foreigners there often make a point that they are not sons of the soil. There are even children of our super-rich men, like David Mark’s who are stuck in permanent acquisition of degrees abroad.

Back to Davido, whose Dad is a business magnate. I hope he wriggles out of his present troubles but he needs to learn that he is a very bad influence on today’s youth and he has no right to further damage the fabrics of our fragile society. We can see the boys who move with him and the kind of reckless life they all live. We hope they slow down otherwise their lives will be wrecked. Is this rascality all worth it? Does fame and fast fortune equate to the long and hard grind that goes into being a famous lawyer, or engineer, or economist or medical doctor or petroleum technologist, or IT Guru, or publisher even if there isn’t much money in some of those areas? But for now millions of Nigerian youths believe Davido when he constantly sings ‘life is all about the money oh. Biko ye’m ego!’ Have we not now seen the folly of it all?

But there’s a line up. Step up Falz my man. He is one of the more reasonable of the lot and attended court as a lawyer at least up to last year as I understand. Uncle Femi Falana is his Dad and I know how conservative he can be. Maybe Falz will get tired someday and settle down to a respectable profession or business. Money-making apart, we need our children to build this nation and elevate the black man beyond being seen as a global entertainer. All these professions they are choosing to today will not build Nigeria because they cannot. Those professions merely play at the edges. We have others like Naeto C, Kema Chikwe’s son. Chukwuma Soludo’s first son, Ozonna is also a musician. Seni Saraki, Uncle Bukola’s first son, is a rapper. Femi Otedola’s first daughter is a DJ. One of the president’s daughters recently hosted a photo show, and one of the VP’s daughters recently open a beauty parlor. Two things are common to all these; bling and blitz. Thankfully, Halima, Aliko Dangote’s second daughter is presently studying him while working with the group as a strategist. Mike Adenuga also tries off and on, to keep his children in the business.

I ask; can these guys not combine the irresistible allure of entertainment and blitz with a steady career progression? I know it’s tough but that is the price for being born with golden spoons in their mouths. Can they also imagine themselves being musicians still at 50 or 60? I know Charlie Boy has made something of a success with that but what about the ups and downs? Even Charlie boy does not sing about sex and money all the time. He is famous for being an activist with a crazy persona. It may seem fun for now to get the attention of millions of fans of the opposite sex, but when the trouble shows up it is never funny.

I write out of fear myself. I strive for greatness daily, by doing what others shy away from doing. I pray my children do even more than I could dare but I’m trying to find out how to help children build spine. Part of the process is writing this down in the hope that someone will point us in the right direction. How do we get this done? For starters let us clear the Augean stable and let those rich kids today know, that making money and fame and finding satisfaction through careers in entertainment is one thing, but getting involved in drugs and alcoholism, and living a totally hopeless life is another thing entirely. Let us also remind them that when it matters most, they will find themselves still entertaining, while children of today’s poor will emerge as the critical leaders who will then superintend over them… if they aren’t careful.

Every prince descends from a pauper, and every pauper, from a prince…

Perhaps that saying goes beyond prince-hood as defined by money, but also as defined by ideas, philosophy, class, respect in society, respect from the comity of nations, ability to infuse into others that much-needed respect and decorum, and the riches that come with a great vision for the future. Most of these cannot be found in quick entertainment professions, and so some of the rich entertainer children of big men have already become pauperized by the company they keep even though they may have money. This is applicable to the present genre that promotes getting rich by all means or dying trying, that glamorizes sex beyond its utility, and emphasizes the acquisition of luxury cars, yachts and private jets, none of which we produce. We need thinkers among the youths.

And for adults, the biggest prayer we can continue to have is to hope that our children surpass us in everything. That is how societies actually improve. Any society that achieves the opposite is on its way to extinction.

Mr man get your facts right, Only DJ Olu is the close friend of Davido among those who died.

Tagbo wasn't his friend and the other guy that died was a friend to DJ Olu. Thank you

Airforce1:
She's the real MVP unlike the other two so bent on milking wizkid dry .

Nobody is milking Wizkid dry...He knew the consequences of having baby mama outside the shores of Nigeria yet he never used his initiatives.


$2000 is nothing compared to the billions he brags and sing about na. . To be honest, that money isn't enough for the baby mama to take care of that little boy self.

See this list of child support payment and you will thank God for your MCM :
Charlie Sheen - $110,000/month
Kirk Kerkorian - $100,000/month
Brendan Fraser - $75,000/month
Sean Combs - $55,000/month

ADRIAN88:
Spot on man! Always wondered why wiz never gave a hoot about her rants; now it all seems clearer.
Which sane man will cough out that much for an obvious leech, whats worse on a monthly basis.

My best take is; that nigga needs to a whole lot careful around these hoes! It all makes sense how you can be at the top of the top one moment, and be butt of the bottom the next minute.

PS- FREE WILL ISNT SO FREE AFTERALL.

What happened to using condom

The funniest thing is that if this girl should sue Wizkid, he is gonna face immigration problems first, all his foreign endorsements will go down the drain and dude will be broke.

Aigbogun01:
Will you keep quiet!!!
Lol!
You think $2000 a month is joke. At her place of work. Does she make upto $2000 a month.
She should chill. Wiz kid is taking care of his kids. She just wants the extra money to live the extravagant life most women in America live.����

So Wizkid doesn't know that $2000 wasn't a joke when he impregnated her and signed that agreement bah?


Where is wizkid taking care of his kid? Why is his first baby mama the one in Nigeria complaining too? Use your sense

Jafar1:
do u really believe wizkid can't pay his children's school fees?

if he can, his 2 baby mama's won't be complaining.


Wizkid is irresponsible unlike Davido that takes care of his children.

kwaruption is fighting back.

Shekarau that has no political value.

He is not only unstable but he is confused.
