Global Afrobeats superstar, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has offered fans a rare glimpse into his spiritual journey, revealing that he once prayed for God to remove everything evil from his life no matter the cost.
The Grammy-winning singer made the emotional confession during a recent Instagram live session, where he reflected on life, fame, and personal growth. According to Wizkid, his desire for inner peace and clarity led him to seek divine intervention at a pivotal point in his life.
“I told God to take everything that’s not from Him out of my life. Whatever is evil no matter how close to me I said, ‘Take it away,’” he disclosed, his tone marked by sincerity and vulnerability.
The candid moment has since sparked a wave of reactions from fans and fellow celebrities, many interpreting the singer’s words as a sign of personal transformation and renewed spiritual awareness.
Known for his luxurious lifestyle and chart-topping hits, Wizkid has in recent times shown a more introspective side, frequently sharing thoughts about gratitude, legacy, and living a life beyond material success.
Some fans speculate the prayer may be connected to recent shifts in his personal life, including his subtle social media hiatuses, cryptic posts, and a more grounded public demeanor.
Religious and mental health advocates have applauded the singer for using his platform to highlight the importance of spiritual wellness and emotional healing in an industry often plagued by pressure and excess.
While Wizkid didn’t go into specific details about what changes followed after his prayer, he emphasized the importance of staying aligned with God’s purpose and shedding toxic attachments.
As the year progresses, many fans are now looking forward to not just new music, but a more evolved and purpose-driven Starboy.
