A Nigerian man’s plea for help in unlocking his iPhone 15 Pro Max took an unexpected turn when social media users began speculating that the device might belong to Wizkid, the renowned Nigerian singer.

The man, who claimed to have gotten drunk and forgotten his password, took to X (formerly Twitter) to seek assistance in accessing his phone.

His initial post read:

“Please, who knows how to unlock an iPhone 15 Pro Max? I got drunk at Nativeland and forgot my passcode. 😅🌚.”

However, things quickly took a dramatic turn as users began tagging the Nigerian police, FBI, and Wizkid, suggesting that the phone might be the one Wizkid had recently reported stolen.

“Make una stop tagging the police, this is my phone, I only forgot my passcode because I was drunk at Nativeland.”

Despite his clarification, the post continued to attract attention, with many users sharing their thoughts and opinions on the matter.
