Why I don’t go to parties – Wizkid opens up [VIDEO]

Nigerian Afrobeats star Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has explained why he rarely attends parties and other public gatherings.

The singer made the revelation in a video interview that surfaced online on Tuesday, following criticism from some social media users over his absence from events organised by close associates, including Zlatan Ibile.

Zlatan recently held his wedding ceremony in Morocco after celebrating his traditional marriage in Lagos on October 24, 2026.

Speaking in the viral interview, Wizkid explained that he prefers staying indoors and does not enjoy attending parties or spending time around large crowds.

When the interviewer asked, “Are you less accessible now?” the singer responded by describing himself as an introvert who enjoys staying at home.

“I’m an introvert. I like staying indoors. I don’t like to do a lot of things. I don’t like to go to a lot of parties. I don’t hangout,” he said.

Wizkid attributed his lifestyle choices to age and personal experiences, explaining that growing older had made him more thoughtful about how he spends his time. He added that attending parties sometimes makes him wish he had stayed home with his son instead. “Sometimes when I go to the party, I’m excited to be there. And some just spill a drink on me and I will be like, I could be at home with son. You know, just having a good time. Not like I feel insulted,” he explained.
