“Wizkid Is My Son”, Elderly Man Sparks Stir in Viral Church Video with Bold Paternity Claim
A dramatic moment at a church service has gone viral after an elderly man publicly claimed music superstar Wizkid is his biological son, sparking shock and laughter from the congregation and online users.
The bold declaration, made during a prophecy session, has triggered mixed reactions across social media, with some dismissing it as comic relief while others speculate about its authenticity.
A viral video featuring an elderly man claiming that Nigerian music superstar Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, popular known as Wizkid is his biological son has triggered widespread reactions on social media, ranging from ridicule to genuine curiosity.
The now-trending footage was captured during a Sunday service at the Revelation of God Fire Ministry. While the preacher was delivering a prophecy about the elderly man being “surrounded by wealthy people,” the man, who was already standing, confidently interrupted to declare his connection to Wizkid.
“Wizkid na my son. Na Balogun marry hin mama. Look me well, I am the father of Wizkid,” the man boldly said, causing a moment of astonishment in the congregation.
The claim instantly caught fire online, with many dismissing it as a publicity stunt or comic relief. However, not all reactions were skeptical. Some observers noted a striking resemblance between the man and the globally celebrated singer, prompting debates over the possibility of his statement being true.
Despite the uproar, Wizkid has not issued any response regarding the claim. His silence has only fueled further speculation and conversation.
While some believe the moment was staged for attention, others argue that it highlights a growing trend where places of worship become platforms for personal revelations both sincere and sensational. It also raises broader questions about identity, fame, and the blurred lines between personal truth and public performance in the age of virality.
