The video showed KWAM 1 test driving the car at his house, Castle of Peace, in the Okota area of Lagos, before he joined his team to take a picture with it.
According to Shonaiya, an artiste’s car collection is directly linked to success and a new bounce in their steps.
In a caption of the video on his Instagram page, the talent manager wrote:
"This was 24yrs ago at the Castle of Peace in Okota, K1’s compound before we left for UK tour. It’s so ironic the song playing in the car. I swear, the CD came with the car from the Dealership!"
