His next love is football or golf.

Writing in pidgin (broken) English, Persecondnews quotes Wizkid thus: “Back in 4 years, make una papa chop him money small or maybe five or I fit still go dey play ball now.

“Or make I start dey play golf. fifa or wrestling b*tch!”All of una dey craze! Everybody dey mad.
