“Why Puma Turned Down Wizkid”- X User Reveals (DETAILS)
A X user, Village Parrot, weighs in on the social media drama between Nigerian Afrobeats superstars, Davido and Wizkid, revealing why Puma dropped Wizkid as its brand ambassador.
Over 24 hours, Wizkid has sparked a social media frenzy and dominated headlines after taking a swipe at Davido on X, revealing why his partnership with Puma sealed off.
According to Village Parrot, Wizkid’s partnership with Puma was sealed off over alleged monetary disputes.
Village Parrot alleges that Wizkid initially signed a $1 million contract with Puma.
However, Wizkid reportedly demanded a revised payment of $10 million upon contract renewal, but Puma declined, opting to offer the lucrative deal to Davido.
His tweet reads, “Puma had Wizkid on $1M at the expiration of his contract; he allegedly demanded $10M, but Puma refused. Then Puma made a turnaround, signed Davido, and allegedly offered him the $10M they declined Wizkid for. Okay, the meltdown he had yesterday makes sense”.
