Wizkid, said,
“Disheartening to watch these videos from my home. You’re fighting the wrong war, fighting the wrong people.
“How do we walk around hating each other? Africa is one. We’re all the same people. Please don’t lose yourself.
“Please educate yourselves, educate the kids, educate the youth. We’re all humans before anything else and most importantly Africans.”
