While his team has yet to release an official statement explaining the latest development, fans are anxiously awaiting clarity — and possible new dates.

Despite the setback, sources suggest that the European leg of the Morayo Tour is still set to go on as planned, with no current indications of change.

However, reactions online hint at deeper personal struggles for the ‘IDK’ crooner. A close associate, Godson, stirred concern on social media when he responded to a fan’s inquiry about the cancellations by asking for prayers for Wizkid.

“Add him to your prayer. Personally, I think he’s still grieving and nobody is helping him achieve this. Sad,” Godson posted.
