No MC at Peller's wedding said Wizkid bigger than Fela: Edo Pikin
Comedian MC Edo Pikin has denied allegations that an MC at a recent celebrity wedding compared Wizkid to Fela Kuti, which reportedly caused Seun Kuti to walk out. He described the event as flawless and urged public figures to verify information before reacting to social media rumors.
Why it matters
The incident highlights the impact of social media misinformation on public perception and the fragility of celebrity reputations.
The comedian described the wedding as perfect.
Comedian and actor, Gbadamosi Jonathan, popularly known as MC Edo Pikin, has said that none of the masters of ceremonies at the recently held Peller and Javis’ white wedding compared Fela Kuti and Ayodeji Balogun, aka Wizkid.
“The other two MCs didn’t say anything like that. It’s not that they exonerated me. I made sure I worked very well with the other two MCs. Nobody mentioned anything about Fela and Wizkid,” said the comedian in a video on Sunday.
The clarification came after Seun Kuti, Fela’s son, was said to have left the wedding in Lagos after one of the MCs allegedly compared Wizkid to Seun’s late father.
A video of the younger Kuti navigating through the chandelier-lit hall with two others in tow before heading for the exit gripped social media.
