• Wizkid's son, Boluwatife, attends his school prom in his father's Lamborghini, but the car's interior reveals a surprising detail.
• Netizens accuse Wizkid of living a fake life after discovering that the Lamborghini’s exterior had been tinted black despite being originally green.
• Social media users react to the controversy, with some defending Wizkid and others criticising his alleged attempt to deceive the public.

A recent incident Involving Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, the Nigerian artiste and songwriter popularly known as Wizkid, and his first son Boluwatife has triggered an uproar on social media, with some netizens suggesting he lives a fake life.

In December 2022, Wizkid made a luxurious purchase of a sleek green Lamborghini Urus. The news sent a buzz online through his fanbase, with many celebrating his new acquisition and marvelling at the car's luxurious features. 

Wizkid's first son, Boluwatife, on December 14, attended his school prom in his father's Lamborghini. However, a surprising detail caught the attention of social media users— the interior of the car had green tints, despite the car's exterior being black.

This discovery led to a storm of reactions online, with many users accusing Wizkid of living a fake life. They alleged that he had tinted the car black to create the illusion of owning two separate Lamborghinis—one green and one black.

Following the diss between Rahman Jago and Oritse Femi, netizens indirectly attacked Wizkid's son, calling his father fake. 

The artiste, who recently released his album Morayo, is known to be quiet in controversy. Since the incident, neither he nor his son has made any public statements.
