Talented Nigerian music star Bankole Wellington popularly known in music circles as Banky W has said he was disappointed with Wizkid’s for not attending his wedding.
Banky in a recent chat with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on the BlackBox interview series also revealed that Wizkid left his Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) record label in 2014 without fulfilling his part of the contract.
Recall that the singer turned politician had a talk of the town wedding with his wife, Adesua Etomi back in 2017.
“Was I disappointed that he wasn’t at the wedding? I was but I know he tried because there was a show with a lot of the artistes…I think it was One Africa,” he said.

“As a matter of fact Tiwa ended up…there was business class and she took an economy seat so she could make it. But he called at the time and said he was so sorry.”
Banky W also spoke about Wizkid’s contract with EME and how he made his exit from the record label devoid of drama.
“I think it was a 5 album deal and he had done 2 solo albums… I think he still owed 3 more albums but he wanted to leave. And for me, that was enough because I don’t want anybody to stay where they want to stay,” he said.
