It hurts deeply.
The deepest pain I’ve ever felt in my life.
I’m lost but I pray God will
comfort everyone of us,
Mrs. Jane Dolapo Balogun, Wizkid’s mother (Pictured), departed on August 18, 2023, in London.
A touching candlelight procession organized in her honor marked Wizkid’s first public appearance after a nearly month-long period of mourning.
Wizkid, originally from Surulere, Lagos, was born on July 26, 1990.
He grew up in a polygamous household, his father adhering to Islam while his mother practiced Christianity.
His mother played an instrumental role in supporting his rapid rise in the music industry.
Now, Wizkid has reemerged on social media after a brief hiatus following his mother’s passing.
He has shared poignant images of his family, paying tribute to his departed mother with the caption,
Forever wit me 🤍❤️🕊️
