Goldmyne TV’s Instagram video featuring an interview with Wizkid’s Dad, Alhaji Muniru Olatunji Balogun, sparks reactions as he discloses being a former APC Chairman and the person responsible for resolving electricity issues in Alaba, Lagos state.
Wizkid has been known to keep his family background private, rarely discussing his parents or their financial status. It was commonly believed that he grew up in an average family, not particularly wealthy but not poor either. However, this perception changed after the recent interview with Wizkid’s father.
In the interview, his father revealed that he played a significant role in getting NEPA (Nigerian Electricity Power Authority) to fix electricity issues in Alaba, Lagos state. This accomplishment suggests that he held considerable influence.

After viewing the interview, one of Wizkid’s followers remarked, “Wizkid is a rich kid, indeed.”
Several reactions poured in after the video was shared. Here are a few of them:
