Segun Wire became popular on social media after a viral video in which he said he wants to be a “Yahoo Boy” when he grows up went viral on social media.
Segun Wire, who was begging on the streets, was later interviewed on the streets and the video became an instant hit on around all social networks.
An Instagram page @Segun_wire was immediately opened for the youngster, followed by some videos of him doing some comedy skits on the page.
Photos of Segun in looking cute, inexpensive cars, clothes, and haircuts were also shared on the Instagram page, leading many to believe that Segun is living well.
A photo of Segun in a school uniform surfaced on social media, with reports claiming he got into school…
Now a social media user, Oreinlofty, who ran into Segun begging on the street again, has confronted Segun’s alleged benefactor, Zlatan Ibile, for only using the boy to make money and dumping him back on the streets.
“Zlatan IBILE na bastard, so na FAKE LIFE him dey make this boy live for INSTAGRAM???!! I met the innocent boy HOVERING on STREET and his Street friends confirmed it.
Zlatan IBILE is only using the boy for his personal pocket… The poor boy looks dirty and unkempt on STREET… Begging for common food to eat from people on STREET…
I actually gave him a little change from what I’ve got!! I swear this is not fair on the boy and his family, his elder brother looked the same, confirming it that @zlatan_ibile only comes from time to time to carry him away whenever he needs him to make money, money he won’t share with him (Segun) at the end.
So if people think this @segun_wire boy is living a life of GLAMOUR I swear you are f*cking mistakes!! Shout out to all those bastards that make people think they are helping the helpless through social media while in real life, it’s all BULLSHIT”
