The allegation came during a recent livestream, prompted by a fan who suggested that Kuti change his nickname from ‘Big Bird’ since Wizkid is also known as the ‘Biggest Bird.’
Seun Kuti responded by telling the fan to advise Wizkid to be original, emphasizing that he has been using the name long before Wizkid.
“Wizkid stole my name. Tell your fave to be original. Why are you telling me to change my name? Sorry, I can’t change it. This name has been here since. I am the first to come up with it. I am not dragging it with anybody, please,” he said.
