Grammy-winning Nigerian musician Ayodeji Balogun, aka Wizkid, lost one of his expensive rings at his just-concluded concert in the UK.
The singer reportedly threw his expensive ring while trying to fling his jacket to the crowd at his sold-out show at Tottenham Stadium in London, UK, on Saturday night.
This was made known by popular British-Nigerian podcaster Adesope Olajide in an Instagram live session. The ring is worth £100,000 (about N85 million).
The podcaster expressed regret for leaving the front row when the ring fell, stressing that he had caught Zlatan Ibile and Diamond Platnumz’s rings at their concerts in the past.
Adesope said, “Why did I leave that front [row at Wizkid’s show] when that ring was about to fall? Ah! I have caught Zlatan and Diamond Platnumz’s rings before. These are thousands of pounds and dollars.
“Obviously, the Wiz ring, that would have been the one. I’m honest. I could sell it for like £100k”.
