Although full details of the promised tour are not out, Wizkid FC, 30 BG gang as their fans are called, have taken to social media to celebrate what they have tagged as the biggest news of 2023.
Wizkid also announced an anticipated single with ‘Rema’ and tagged singer Wande Coal in a short video that looked like a studio session on his social media handles.
The biggest surprise Wizkid and Davido can bring out on their joint tour is Olamide. Because those are the 3 legends that held the industry down in the 10s era.

History repeated?
On December 25, 2017, Davido and Wizkid settled their supremacy rift on stage.
Both artistes reconciled during Wizkid’s concert at the Eko Convention Center in Lagos.
It was the first time both singers would perform together.

Wizkid made the first move by inviting Davido to share the stage and spotlight with him, to the audience’s delight.
With that gesture, Wizkid debunked speculations that he had an age-long beef with Davido.
Wizkid is going on a tour with Davido. Wizkid and Davido are very cool yet some people have cursed each other’s parents and blocked each other because of Wizkid/Davido banter. Wake up and receive sense. pic.twitter.com/PjDgT7MVeH
