Nigerian singer Michael Adebayo Olayinka, better known as Ruger, has made a bold appeal to his senior colleague, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, known as Wizkid.
Ruger, known for his vibrant hits and signature eye patch, reached out to Wizkid on microbogging platform, X appealing to inherit his devoted fanbase, popularly called Wizkid FC whenever he decides to retire.
In his appeal, the ‘Bounce’ crooner humorously proposed that if Wizkid’s son, Zion, shows no interest in pursuing a music career, he would happily step in to inherit his loyal fanbase.
“@wizkidayo if you ever decide to not do music again, and Zion no wan do music Slsef, pls write my name Ruger as the person to inherit your fanbase in your music will.”
Wizkid, famously known as Starboy, is celebrated for having one of the most loyal fanbases in Africa. However, he has yet to respond to Ruger’s bold plea.
Ruger’s playful appeal has since sparked widespread conversations on social media, with fans speculating about Wizkid’s reaction and sharing varied opinions on the rising star’s daring move.
