News reports that the Grammy-winning singer made the revelation during an interview with Famous TV.

Wizkid described himself as an introvert who enjoys spending time indoors rather than attending parties or being in crowded environments.

When asked whether he had become less accessible, the singer explained that his approach to social activities had changed over the years due to age and personal experiences.

According to him, growing older has made him more conscious of his choices and helped him gain a clearer understanding of what he wants in life.

Speaking during the interview, Wizkid said: “I’m an introvert. I like staying indoors. I don’t like to do a lot of things. I don’t like to go to a lot of parties. I don’t hang out.

“I think that really comes from age and personal experiences. That’s not like how people perceived me. It’s just like I’m growing older as each day passes. So, like getting smarter with my decisions, you just know what you want more as you grow older.

“I don’t go to parties, I don’t like to hang around too many people. Sometimes when I go to the party, I’m excited to be there. And some just spill a drink on me, and I will be like, I could be at home with my son, you know, just having a good time. Not like I feel insulted.”

“That’s why I’m so intentional about putting in so much effort in representing myself, representing women and just giving more women an opportunity to do better for themselves as well.”

Hilda Baci is in a relationship with Nigerian music executive and entrepreneur Dapper, the founder of Dapper Group.

The couple have been together since before Baci gained international recognition in May 2023, following her achievement of breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.

Unfortunately, I find myself that while i was in the relationship. Having kids. He believes you can’t have so much as a female, as a wife. I can’t do so many things on my own. As a boyfriend and girlfriend, he would have me bring my vehicles, then when they are returned to me, they will be in bad shape. I won’t be able to use them anymore.

“Then he will replace it for me. After we had issues, everything was stripped off me. Even the house i was living. After that relationship, I had to go back to square one. I travelled to the US, and when I came back, he said, ‘Don’t bring that back to the house’. My first husband was threatened by me being financially free and succeeding.”

Bakare further revealed that she had been involved in a custody battle over her children for the past 10 years.

She claimed that although she was granted custody of the children at one point, she was subsequently denied access to them.
