@Chioma_Jay said, “Wizkid deserves the award!!!”
@officialkabar also wrote, “we should be able to comment on your last post madam Grammy”
Reno omokri while reacting condemned Nigerians attitude towards the songstress.
According to him, ‘When I saw how Nigerians were more concerned with the Grammy awards and especially with bashing Angelique Kidjo (who is actually qualified to be a Nigerian citizen) than the widespread killings by terrorist in our country, I realized that buhari isn’t the only problem our country has!
“Let me shock some of you – Angelique Kidjo speaks fluent yourba. By Virtue of section 25 of the Nigeria’s constitution, Angelique Kidjo is a Nigerian, Reno said further.
“It shows the depth of ignorance for Nigerians to attack her for defeating Nigeria at the Grammy. Can Nigeria defeat Nigeria, he questioned.
