Burna Boy, Wizkid or Davido: Jay Jay Okocha's nephew Iwobi reveals favourite Nigerian artiste

Nigerian football star Alex Iwobi, nephew of the legendary Austin Jay Jay Okocha has shared his love for Nigerian music. 

Pulse Sports Nigeria reports that in an interesting video shared on social media, Iwobi declared his unwavering preference for Afrobeats over English tunes.

Pressed to reveal his favourite Nigerian artist, the Fulham midfielder proudly claimed, "Wizkid!".

He went on to elaborate, "I have always been a big fan of Wizkid," solidifying his long-standing admiration for the Afrobeat superstar.

While Iwobi's music preferences may surprise some, his skills on the pitch remain undeniable. 

Following his competent performances at the AFCON tournament, where he featured prominently in an unconventional deeper role for the Super Eagles, he has continued to impress with Fulham in the Premier League.
