Wizkid to Headline CANEX 2025 Mega Concert in Algeria Amid ₦6.4bn Pay Rumors

Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has been officially confirmed as the headline act for the CANEX 2025 Mega Concert in Algiers, Algeria, taking place on Friday, September 5.

The concert is part of the Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX) 2025, running from September 4–10, a festival that celebrates Africa’s creative industries — from music and fashion to film, literature, and visual arts.

Organisers described Wizkid’s inclusion as a huge boost:

“Renowned for his infectious Afrobeat rhythms, chart-topping hits, and magnetic stage presence, Wizkid has become one of Africa’s most celebrated music icons.”

Social media, however, has been set ablaze with claims that Wizkid will earn up to ₦6.4 billion ($4.2 million) for the performance. While entertainment blogs like @tooxclusive_com and @entdaily001 amplified the buzz, the organisers have not officially confirmed the figure.

This wouldn’t be Wizkid’s first big paycheck — from $681,200 at an Indian royal wedding (2018) to $3 million at the AIA Sound Festival in Denmark (2025), and nearly $1 million from his Madison Square Garden show in New York, the star continues to set records.

With past performances at the O2 Arena (London) and State Farm Arena (Atlanta) also raking in close to $900,000 each, Wizkid’s CANEX 2025 appearance is shaping up to be another history-making moment.

Again, Naira Marley Denies Involvement In Mohbad’s Death, Calls For Fresh Probe

Marlian Records boss, Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, has again distanced himself from allegations linking him to the death of Afrobeats star Ilerioluwa Aloba (Mohbad), who died on September 12, 2023.

In a one-hour video released Tuesday, Marley said he was in Amsterdam when Mohbad died and only learnt of the tragedy via social media. He noted that his passport proves his absence, insisting police wrongly targeted him and associate Sam Larry instead of those who were with Mohbad in his final hours.

Mohbad’s death sparked nationwide protests and vigils, with his family still disputing toxicology results and demanding an independent review.

Marley accused blogs of pushing false narratives against him, stressing that he never had time to grieve. He also called for a fresh, impartial investigation, urging police to “arrest everybody again” under credible oversight.

On financial disputes, Marley maintained that Mohbad had a 50-50 profit-sharing deal with Marlian Records, dismissing claims of exploitation. He further alleged that the late singer battled drug use, paranoia, and suicidal tendencies, which were often misinterpreted as label oppression.

"Who are Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy? Are they gods? I can say whatever I like to whoever I want," — VDM responds to fans criticizing him for calling out the big three.

"I have never said I have low self-esteem. I am a very proud and egoistic man, and I don’t hide it. My pride has helped me maintain my integrity so far. That’s why nobody can beat their chest and say they paid Verydarkman to do this.

I will never force anyone to be my friend. That’s why I can’t beat my chest and say whatever I like if I feel it’s not for the betterment of the country. If you think I’m here to massage anyone’s ego, you’re going to learn the hard way.

You said I called out Wizkid. Who is Wizkid? Is he a god? Is Davido a god? Is Burna Boy a god? At most, we’ll all have 70 years, and then we’ll be gone. The most important thing is what our children, who will still be alive, will remember us for.

I don’t need validation from anyone. I’ve grown beyond that level. I could tell all the blogs, ‘Don’t ever post about me in your life,’ and I’d still remain relevant." — Verydarkman
