Nigerians Reacts As M.I Abaga Attacks Akon For Calling Wizkid His Little Brother

Popular Nigerian rapper, M.I Abaga is currently under heavy fire on social media for attacking singer Akon who called Wizkid his little brother.

Akon and Wizkid performed together in Ghana at the self-acclaimed ‘Africa’s Biggest Urban Music Beach Festival’ – Afro Nation, on Monday night, December 30, 2019.

Moment after the performance, Akon took to his Twitter page to share a picture of himself and Wizkid with a caption “Me and my lil bro @wizkidayo at AFRONATION Ghana!.”

It seems like M.I Abaga was not too pleased with Akon’s “lil bro” description of Wizkid as he requoted the tweet with an unpleasant caption.

M.I’s caption started a hot conversation on Twitter, while some Nigerians backed him, others said Akon has done nothing wrong.
