There are reports that Nigerian singer; Wizkid was arrested in Kenya, over the weekend, for allegedly smoking weed, according to Kenyan publication Standard Digital. 

According to Standard Digital news, the music star was arrested at his Nairobi Crown Plaza hotel after things took a different turn when he was confronted by the hotel’s staff.

 “Visiting Nigerian singer Wizkid was arrested from his Nairobi Crown Plaza Hotel room on Saturday afternoon and quizzed by police only hours before his flight back to Lagos.

The arrest was in connection with allegations that he was caught smoking illegal substances. The incident happened at around 1pm just as the Caro singer was checking out of his hotel room where he has been staying for a week, since his last week’s concert.

Before police officers cuffed him and drove him to Capital Hill Police Station where he was quizzed, the hotel had already charged him with 50,000 Kenyan Shillings smoking penalty, which he paid through his credit card.

Coming to his rescue was his newly found Kenyan flame Victoria Kimani, who followed him to the police station shortly after he had been arrested. Victoria had been with the singer at the hotel the previous day. Wizkid was due to leave for Lagos at around 3pm and was forced to cancel the flight due to the drama.”

Wizkid is yet to respond to the report.

Wizkid has been in the news a lot lately, from his alleged beef with colleague, Davido to Wizkid’s former producer, Samclef, blasting him even calling him an ingrate.
