The renowned crooner to a greater extent advised his colleagues and musicians against buying or owning a private jet if they want to ‘stay rich.’
He explained saying, “Whatever you do, do not own a (Private) jet. Bro, owning a jet is spending at least 2-3 million dollars a year just for upkeep [maintenance]. You spend more on the maintenance than the actual jet cost. This is the advice I give everybody. The money that you have now has to last you a lifetime. When you reason it that way, you are going to be very prudent.”
Some popular Nigerian musicians are owners of private jets. The first to acquire one was Davido in 2018. Wizkid is also said to have his jet too, but many of them hire jets when they want to travel for their shows.
