He wrote, “Why when money comes, happiness dey always comot?” — highlighting how many wealthy people still struggle with sadness despite their riches.

Kizz Daniel quickly clarified, saying, “Lol … I still live like a poor man every day. Na money dey chase me instead.”
He explained that he no longer pursues money — money comes to him — but even so, it hasn’t guaranteed happiness.
In a deeper message to his fans, the singer added:
“Guys, I’m not saying don’t chase money, I’m just saying with money comes problems. People wey get am no go tell una the truth cuz they want to feel superior.”
He also advised followers to look beyond the fake love and glamor portrayed on social media, reminding them that not everything that glitters is gold.
Kizz Daniel’s introspective take on wealth and joy comes just days before the drop of his highly anticipated album, Uncle K — further adding to the buzz surrounding the artist and what messages fans might expect from his new body of work.
