Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has set the internet abuzz after visiting Reekado Banks’ newly launched lounge, Above Lifestyle, in Lagos. This move comes years after the two had a public fallout during the End SARS protests in 2020.
Wizkid and Reekado Banks Reunite
In viral videos, Wizkid arrived at the lounge with Shallipopi, and Reekado Banks warmly welcomed him at the entrance. The two shared a hug before Wizkid checked out the venue, took a seat, and enjoyed a drink while chatting with Reekado.
Their 2020 Fallout Over End SARS
Their friendship soured in 2020 when Reekado Banks promoted their song “Omo Olomo” during the height of the End SARS protests. Wizkid, who was deeply involved in the movement, publicly lashed out at Reekado, calling him a “fool” and urging him to delete the post. The exchange caused a major online stir, with many criticizing Wizkid’s harsh response.
