A tweet by the multi award- winning artist, Wizkid to rapper MI Abaga has suddenly resurfaced on social media.
The tweet, which was made on 1st November, 2010 at 8:14pm revealed the Afrobeat singer seeking the attention of the veteran rapper.
The tweet read: “@MI_Abaga hello sir..my name is wizkid..nd am an upcoming artiste….I’ve met u b4 bt not sure u remb me..am a bigggg fan sir!..”
