By Sewe Ishola,

Nigeria won big at the just concluded MOBO Awards as Wizkid emerges the Best International Act beating some of the best in the game, like Jay Z, Drake, Cardi B and others.

By winning this award, Wizkid becomes the first African to join the league of artistes like Beyonce, Emimen, Drake, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj.

Congratulatory messages have been coming in for the singer and one was from Senator Ben Murray Bruce, who took to his Twitter handle to share the message below:

“Dear @wizkidayo, I‘ve been in the entertainment business as an investor since 1980 and one of my proudest moments for Nigerian music is the day you defeated both Jayz and @Drake, two of the biggest stars in the world, to win the Best international Act at the #MOBOAwards well done.”

Wizkid won the MOBO Awards Best African Act in 2011 and 2016 before emerging Best International Act, this year.
