With many celebrities posting ‘before and after’ photos of themselves using the ‘Surulere’ hashtag on social media, Bovi said that some Nigerian celebrities have avoided putting up any photos because they never experienced suffering while growing up.
‘Some of our celebrities like Davido have never seen or experienced suffering. He can’t even put up one ‘Surulere’ picture because his past is brighter than some people’s future,’ Bovi joked when he appeared as guest on the show.
On Wizkid, he said, ‘Wizkid is the only Nigerian boy who adds to his age while others keep reducing theirs. I believe he has never shaved before because he is just sixteen and if he is really older than that, I dare him to put up his birth certificate on Instagram to prove his real age!’
Mavin signee, Dr. Sid stays number one on this week’s chart for the second week with his monster single, ‘Surulere’. Fast rising artist, Patoranking is hot on Dr Sid’s heels at number two with ‘Girlie O’.
Burna Boy falls three places down to number five as Davido and Ice Prince move up one notch each with the singles, ‘Aye’ and ‘Jambo’.
Other artists on this week’s chart include 2Face, Wizkid, Phyno and Jesse Jagz, among others.
