Wizkid, Burna Boy, Davido lose Twitter verification badges


After breaking Twitter CEO Elon Musk’s new guidelines, award-winning superstar musicians Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid had their Twitter badges removed.

Last year, Creebhills revealed that Twitter had plans to start charging users close to $20 a month to stay verified.


According to a source, Elon Musk will oversee the rollout of a premium service that includes this.

On Sunday, October 30, Musk, the new CEO of the social networking platform, stated in a tweet,


“The whole verification process is being revamped right now”.

The company also plans to raise its optional $ 4.99-a-month premium subscription called Twitter Blue to $19.99 a month. However, that price is subject to change. The Verge reported, citing internal correspondence and people familiar with the matter.


Failure to comply with his rules meant an automatic loss of one’s verification, which social media users use in differentiating a celebrity’s page and that of the common man.

Keeping to his words, Twitter has started stripping celebrities and public figures of their Twitter badges.




Nigerian superstar trio didn’t comply with the rules and lost their verification check marks.

Kemi Filani did a check on their respective Twitter pages and noticed the new change.
