When asked about his connection with the music stars, the footballer revealed that he has met them in person and is a big fan of their music.

“It’s amazing to hear Davido’s, Wizkid’s, and Burna Boy’s songs in clubs. When people hear these songs, they say, ‘This is Davido’ or ‘This is Wizkid.’ And I get to say, ‘Yes, these artists are from Nigeria,’” he added.

Osimhen also pointed out that the recognition of Nigerian music globally is a huge source of pride for the country.

“They’ll tell you that Nigeria is blessed with so many talented artists. That alone gives us bragging rights,” he concluded.
