Ayodeji Balogun, nicknamed Wizkid, reportedly threw his expensive ring while attempting to fling his jacket into the audience at his sold-out event at Tottenham Stadium in London, UK, on Saturday night.
According to Adesope Olajide, a prominent British-Nigerian podcaster, the ring is worth £100,000 (about N85 million).
The podcaster expressed sorrow for leaving the front row when the ring fell, pointing out that he had previously caught Zlatan Ibile and Diamond Platnumz’s rings at concerts.

He said this lately during an Instagram live session with fans.
Adesope said, “Why did I leave that front [row at Wizkid’s show] when that ring was about to fall? Ah! I have caught Zlatan and Diamond Platnumz’s rings before. These are thousands of pounds and dollars.
“Obviously, the Wiz ring, that would have been the one. I’m honest. I could sell it for like £100k.”
Meanwhile, Wizkid became the first African artist to sell out the 80,000-capacity Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, behind only Burna Boy, who sold out London Stadium last month, as the second African to do so.
Football talents Bukayo Saka, Alex Iwobi, and Eddie Nketiah attended the concert.
