Peeled paintings, grassy surroundings, Wizkid alleged Surulere home resurfaces, Nigerians react

Nigerian superstar singer Ayo Balogun who is popularly known as Wizkid is one of the richest acts in Africa.

Before he acquired his wealth, however, the singer like many others in Nigeria had to grind and hustle till they made it to the top.

Wizkid's hustle began in Ojuelegba, a suburb of Lagos.

While many only knew where he started, a video that emerged on social media shows his alleged childhood home.

According to Legit.ng, an individual had paid a visit to the Surulere neighborhood where the singer grew up and he was led to the house where Wizkid allegedly lived.

In a video shared online, the man was heard expressing his surprise as residents in the area confirmed that the music star once lived there.

The man proceeded to get a brief tour of the modest bungalow and he captured the grassy surroundings while expressing reservations.
