Veteran Nigerian singer John Odafe Asiemo, popularly known as Daddy Showkey, has shared the story of how he first got introduced to the social media platform Instagram.

In a recent video posted on his page, the singer recounted a visit to Afrobeats superstar Wizkid’s home a few years ago. During the visit, he was surprised to learn that he was trending online all thanks to a post Wizkid had shared about him.

Curious about how it all worked, Daddy Showkey asked Wizkid how to get involved in social media. It was then that Wizkid introduced him to Instagram and even helped set up his account.

Daddy Showkey added that later on, fellow artist KCee also stepped in to guide him on how to use the app properly.

He expressed gratitude to both stars, crediting them for helping him connect with a wider audience through social media.

“I had a special call today from @maleekberry and I shared a story of how @wizkidayo introduced me and also helped me open my Instagram account 😀 and how @iam_kcee also shared knowledge on how to navigate the app … life is about learning and applying the knowledge is key to the life we live now.”
