Wizkid Ayo Balogun played to an unprecedented massive audience at Sierra Leone’s National Stadium on Thursday night 28 April.

The event was part of the 55th Independence anniversary of the West African nation. The anniversary itself came up a day earlier, but the country appeared to be still deep in celebratory mood when the Starboy entertained.

Here are photographs and videos of Wizkid’s visit to Freetown, beginning with a hangout with President Ernest Koroma at State House. They were posted on Wizkid’s Instagram page.
