  • Afrobeats superstar, Wizkid alongside his family, have purportedly launched a Condolence registration session, offering well-wishers the chance to convey their respects for his departed mother, the esteemed Mrs. Jane Dolapo Balogun.
  • Distinguished figures from all walks of life are anticipated to converge at the deceased’s home, adding their signature and crafting brief words of solace, serving as a gesture of support for the grieving household.

All signs point towards an intensive gearing up for the funeral of Mrs. Jane Balogun, as videos capturing the designated venue for well-wishers to express their condolences have emerged.

WITHIN NIGERIA captured some of the comments that trailed the video, see them below:

aubiergembock: “A mother will teach you everything, and absolutely everything you need to know in life, but she won’t and can’t teach you how to live without her. ”

pascal_offset01: “Big Wiz Will 4ever Represent. .”

nirat___: “May God rest her soul and keep us wey remain for life safe and healthy ti it’s our time too.” 

Wizkid lost his mother on Friday, August 18, 2023, and the sad news quickly threw many of the singer’s fans into mourning.

In the midst of it all, the Singer has taken a hiatus from the social media scene since the passing of his mother.

Given that Mrs. Jane Balogun was deeply rooted in the Pentecostal Christian faith, it stands to reason that her final rites would follow a church-centric approach, despite the fact that Wizkid’s father practices Islam.

Afrobeats Superstar, Davido, while on stage at the recent AfroNation Festival, sent a special condolence message to Wizkid.

The DMW boss sent love messages and support to Wizkid about the passing of his mum while speaking glowingly of the singer and how his legacy in the Nigerian music industry would last forever.

Burna Boy also paused his performance at Afro Nation to offer his condolences.

According to Burna, his brother Wizkid lost his mum and he wishes her a peaceful rest. Not stopping there, he also spoke on how he cannot imagine losing his own mother and how it would be the end of him.
