Singer Crayon shocks Nigerians as he opens up on his real age, says he’s not 21

Charles Chibuezechukwu, also known as Crayon, a Nigerian singer, has denied rumors that he is 21 years old.

The “Ijo Labalaba” singer confirmed that he will be 25 in July, not 21, as previously speculated on the internet.

Crayon recently remarked in an interview with Hip TV that the majority of information on the internet is fake.

He added that he started schooling at a young age and completed high school early, which may have led to the incorrect age information.

Crayon said, “What you see on Wikipedia, sometimes are not accurate. For me, I started schooling at a very young age and I finished my secondary school very young. So all of that [alleged age] is just what you see on the internet mehn. I’m 24, I’m going 25 in July. It’s crazy like sometimes you see some things that are not matching.”

During the interview, Crayon also revealed that he was starstruck the first time he met Wizkid at Don Jazzy’s birthday in 2018. He described the Grammy-winning artist as his “GOAT.”
