Nigerian footballer Ademola Lookman recently sparked a lively debate when he named Wizkid as his favorite singer over Davido. Lookman, who plays for Atalanta BC and was ranked 14th at the 2024 Ballon d’Or, made his preference known in a recent interview.
Unlike fellow Super Eagles players Victor Osimhen and Samuel Chukwueze, who declined to choose between the two music giants, citing their love for both, Lookman confidently picked Wizkid.
The footballer’s choice generated mixed reactions on social media, with some fans defending his decision and others jokingly expressing disappointment. Comments ranged from “Lookman broke my heart, but I’ll forgive him” to “Why choose Wizkid?” and “Lookman incoming African best!” The debate continues among music lovers and football enthusiasts, highlighting the passionate rivalry between Wizkid and Davido’s fan bases.
Lookman’s impressive football career, including his top-10 listing for the 2024 CAF Award and helping Atalanta win the Europa League, has earned him recognition and admiration. Now, his musical preferences have added another dimension to his public persona, sparking conversation and debate among fans.
