"Was I disappointed that he wasn't at the wedding? I was but I know he tried because there was a show with a lot of the artists...I think it was One Africa," he said.
"As a matter of fact Tiwa ended up...there was business class and she took economy seat so she could make it. But he called at the time that he was so sorry."
He also spoke about Wizkid's contract with EME and how he made his exit from the record label easy devoid of drama.
He also said Wizkid left the label without fulfilling his part in the contract.
"I think it was a 5 album deal and he had done 2 solo albums... I think he still owed 3 more albums but he wanted to leave. And for me, that was enough because I don't want anybody to stay where they want to stay." he said.
Wizkid signed a record deal with Banky W's Empire Mates Entertainment (E.M.E) in 2009.
He released two albums 'StarBoy' and 'Ayo' under the record label.
