Nigerian Famous Afrobeats singer, Wizkid Ayo Balogun has gotten tongues wagging online with his recent decision to respect personal boundaries during a performance with fellow songstress, Tems.
The duo took the stage to the next level at the highly-anticipated ‘Essence Fest‘ on Sunday night, marking their first joint performance in two years
After dishing a stellar performance to over 500,000 audience at the event last night with their hit song “Essence”, Wizkid took a moment to express his gratitude.
However, Amidst the speech an unexpected and passionate hug from Tems caught him off guard.
Displaying a slight hesitation, Wizkid refrained from reciprocating the embrace fully, causing a stir on social media.
Reacting to the heartwarming moments, Many online users have attributed to it to an incident that happened on stage during “Made in Lagos” concert in 2021 at 02 Arena.
Recall that Wizkid had attempted to lift Tems during the performance, which garnered a range of reactions on social media.
Many criticized the Afrobeat star that time for assaulting her, while others dismissed it as a mere accident.
According to the clip making the rounds online, it has taken another turn this time as Tems was the one who initiated the hug, but Wizkid snubbed her to avoid the formal incident at 02 arena.
