Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has bagged yet another MOBO award at the just concluded MOBO Awards 2021.
Wizkid has become the Nigerian artist with the most MOBO Awards in history as he recently won two of those awards at the 2021 edition. The “Essence” crooner won the “Best International Act” as well as the “Best African Act”. He won despite a long list of strong competitors for the award in each nominated category.
This win comes on the heels of his successful back to back sell-out concert at the O2 Arena, London.
