Popular Nigerian musician Davido engaged in a spat with an Abuja-based barber and avid Wizkid fan, Callistus Okolie, known as @Kallystouch on Instagram. The altercation began when Okolie labeled Davido as the third biggest musician in Nigeria.
The exchange began when Okolie commented on Davido’s Dubai photos, stating, “The only 3rd man in the music industry 003.” Unimpressed with this ranking, Davido swiftly fired back, admonishing Okolie for prioritizing social media over real connections. He expressed disappointment that Okolie had missed out on blessings by not fostering direct relationships. Furthermore, Davido highlighted instances where he had supported his previous barbers in establishing their own salons.
Displaying his disdain towards the criticism, Davido asserted, “My last three barbers, I opened shops for them. That is how you missed your generation’s blessing.”
On Monday, Okolie took a retaliatory jab, tweeting as @Kallystouch on X.com. He shared a video showcasing his exceptional barbering skills, subtly suggesting that Davido had missed out on the opportunity to receive a haircut from the best barber in Abuja. “Davido just missed the opportunity to have a haircut from the best barber in Abuja,” Okolie wrote.
This online confrontation has sparked intense discussions among fans of both Davido and Wizkid, as they eagerly watch for further developments in what promises to be an intriguing clash between two influential figures in the Nigerian music industry.
