Grammy Award-winning Nigerian superstar Wizkid has returned to the United Kingdom with his family, marking the start of what is expected to be a demanding opening to the new year.
The singer arrived in the UK on Thursday, January 8, 2026, aboard a private jet alongside his partner and manager, Jada Pollock, and their three children. The move signals the beginning of his plans for 2026 following an active but release-free year.
Confirming the development, Pollock revealed that Wizkid’s team is set for an intense schedule over the next three months, noting that the period will be filled with back-to-back engagements and little room for rest.
Despite not dropping a studio album or extended play project in 2025, Wizkid maintained a strong global presence. The singer toured internationally, made multiple high-profile appearances, and shared stages with a range of global and Nigerian music stars throughout the year.
His 2025 run peaked with a headline performance in Lagos during Detty December, one of the most talked-about concerts of the festive season. The show stood out among several major events that defined the annual celebration in Nigeria’s entertainment capital.
As Wizkid settles back into the UK, anticipation continues to build around his next moves, with fans expecting a major year following his sustained momentum on the global stage.
