Recall that Wizkid lost his mother in August, 2023.

Wizkid has not been on social media or in the public eye since the event.

Nonetheless, the 'Starboy' made his first appearance in public following a nearly month-long period of silence as he grieved the loss of his mother.

Born in Surulere, Lagos, on July 26, 1990. Wizkid grew up in a polygamous home with a Muslim father and a Christian mother.

His mum, a formidable cornerstone of strength, lent unwavering backing to her son's meteoric rise in the industry.
