In the wake of the recent xenophobic attacks by South Africans on foreign nationals in their country, including Nigerians. Starboy label boss Wizkid says he is disappointed with celebrities.
The 29-year-old superstar singer revealed in a tweet that this isn’t the time to fight or point accusing fingers at anyone, but rather a time to let love lead.

There has been a series of looting, killings and violence meted out to Nigerians in South Africa. Some people are justifying this menace, disclosing that their jobs are being taken from them, and even the host country has more foreigners than the actual citizens in some cities.
Y’all want to go around preaching hate and fighting each other when the real problem is not even on social media! You clout chasing dick heads! #SayNoToXenophobicAttacks ! Fight the real problem! Government! Poverty! Education!
