Drake failed to appear on Wizkid's latest single Come Closer

Nigerians have ‘gone up in arms’ after Drake did not appear in Wizkid’s latest video 

- This is coming after the rumor that both artistes have never met in person 

- Both Wizkid and Drake have come out to offer explanations as to why this happened 


When Drake worked with Wizkid on the remix of his hit song Ojuelegba in 2015, NAIJ.com felt it was the beginning of better things for him and rightly so. 

Since that song, Drake has gone on to gain a number one single (One Dance) with Wizkid’s help and this in turn helped Wizkid secure a recording contract with international label SONY/RCA

Their relationship blossomed that so many were surprised at a rumor alleging that Wizkid hasn’t met Drake in person. The rumor also implied that all their contact with each other has been via email. This rumor gained a bit of credence when Wizkid did not appear in the video for One Dance. 

Both Wizkid and Drake remained silent on this issue and Nigerians forgot about it but when Wizkid released the video for his recent effort with Drake titled Come Closer and the Canadian singer did not show up, the rumor appeared to have been confirmed. 

Nigerians began to vent their fury on Drake saying since Wizkid has helped him in the past, it was only fair he did the same for him.

Perhaps in a bid to douse the flames, Wizkid replied, explaining why he hasn’t appeared in a video with Drake and why Drake hasn’t done the same. He has since deleted the tweet
