Nigerian singer Ayodeji Balogun, better known as Wizkid, has opened up about the state of his mental and emotional well-being five months after his mother’s death.
The music superstar revealed that he has not been himself since his late mother, Jane Dolapo, passed away in London on August 18, 2023, at the age of 66.

In a series of posts shared on his Instastory, Wizkid lamented his present condition and said he can’t wait to feel like himself again. He added that the pain of his mother’s death is ‘expensive.’
The ‘Essence’ crooner wrote,
“Look in the mirror don’t feel myself! Mama left me and I lost myself!
Can’t wait to feel to feel myself again. Life of a soldier!
Military with it!
Expensive pain!”
