Wizkid Sparks Speculation After Hinting At Possible Presidential Run

Wizkid has sparked widespread reactions online after a video surfaced suggesting he might be eyeing the presidency.

The footage, shared on January 8, 2026, captures the singer in a relaxed moment with family and friends, chatting about politics in a way that immediately caught fans’ attention. While some believe it was light-hearted banter, others think there may be more to it.

During the conversation, Wizkid went as far as unveiling a party name, saying, “Wizkid political party. WPP. I am running for presidency in the year 20…” He stopped short of mentioning a specific election year, a move that only deepened curiosity and debate online.

The video dropped just hours after Wizkid made history as the first African artiste to surpass 10 billion streams on Spotify, further cementing his global status. With his cultural influence at an all-time high, many fans see the statement as symbolic, while others are wondering if the superstar could be hinting at ambitions beyond music.
