Nigerian music star Wizkid has ignited a social media storm after a heated verbal tirade against fellow musician Davido and his uncle, Ademola Adeleke, the Governor of Osun State. The altercation unfolded on Thursday afternoon via a series of posts on Wizkid’s official X account, formerly known as Twitter.
In a fiery rant, Wizkid unleashed harsh words directed at both Davido and Adeleke, though the reasons for his outburst remain nebulous. He hurled derogatory remarks at Davido, insisting, “E no go better for Davido and him feelings!” This comment was made in response to a social media user and suggests a deep-seated animosity between the two artists.
Wizkid didn’t hold back while recalling a recent encounter with Davido at a nightclub, alleging that his rival persistently seeks his attention. “Want what? He looks for me everywhere I go like the fanboy he is! This was an event for one of my DJs, Skyla, in Lagos! We no invite dem!” Wizkid exclaimed, reinforcing his stance on the dynamics of their relationship.
The attack extended beyond Davido to Governor Ademola Adeleke, whom Wizkid mocked for his energetic online dance videos. He remarked, “When you see people wey dem papa and family train, you go know! You don’t see my uncle dancing online!" hinting at a perceived lack of authenticity among those who seek attention through social media.
The public is left to speculate on the underlying tensions between these prominent figures in the Nigerian music industry, as Wizkid’s scathing remarks continue to make waves online.
