During the interview, a hefty, dark-skinned man approached them while the camera was rolling, accusing the White reporter of owing him about N500k. Upon seeing the man, Wizkid immediately became uncomfortable and watched as the situation unfolded.

The "thug" claimed that the debt had been outstanding for six months and insisted on receiving his money that day or else he would seize all the camera and TV equipment being used for filming.

Wizkid attempted to intervene and calm the irate man, introducing himself in the process. However, the man pretended not to know who Wizkid was and continued his tirade.

As the scene grew tense, the "thug" handed Wizkid a paper, asking him to look at the invoice as a faux confirmation of the debt. When Wizkid opened the white sheet, it revealed the message, "You have just been pranked on the Big Friday Show."

Realizing he had been pranked, the Ojuelegba hitmaker burst into laughter, surprised by how realistic the acting had been. He then excitedly hugged the hefty man, calling him "my G."
