In true Kizz Daniel fashion, the Nigerian superstar stirred up a storm on X (formerly Twitter) with a question that got everyone—from philosophers to keyboard warriors—typing aggressively:
“Why when money come, happiness dey always comot?”
Now, this isn’t your regular “God when?” type of post. This one hit differently.
Kizz, who’s known for his smooth vocals and hit tracks, decided to toss a little life riddle into the TL, and just like that, Nigerians turned into TED Talk speakers overnight.
Daniel Regha reacts to the Chat (of course)
As expected, Daniel Regha, X unofficial principal and moral compass, didn’t waste time jumping in with a motivational essay.
In typical fashion, he reminded everyone that money can’t buy happiness and that if you’re searching for joy in cash, you might just be searching in the wrong wallet. Classic Regha, no notes, just vibes and unsolicited lectures.
Fans weren’t having it
But the streets of Twitter don’t always agree with motivational talk.
Some fans fired back with the good vibes’ “Money can buy my happiness” while others broke it down: money is sweet, but it also comes with expectation, envy, and some low-key hatred from people who used to love you when you were broke.
A few went full Nollywood mode, warning that riches often come with betrayal and drama. And of course, the conspiracy theorists were quick to point out that Kizz might just be using the whole deep talk to sneak in a promo for his new song.
Kizz Daniel clears the air
Not one to let things spiral, Kizz later returned to set the record straight:
“Guys I’m not saying don’t chase money, I’m just saying with money comes problem.”
What is really going on with Kizz Daniel
All jokes aside, Kizz’s post touches on something deeper. As society glorifies wealth, fame, and fast cars, it’s easy to forget that mental peace and emotional well being are priceless.
Yes, money can solve a lot of problems (especially in this economy), but it can also introduce new ones if you’re not grounded.
So, should we stop chasing money? Of course not. But maybe, just maybe, in the middle of the hustle, it’s wise to check your happiness levels too.
And if that doesn’t work? Well, at least play Kizz Daniel’s new track while you’re counting your problems it might just make them sound better.
