Nigerian music star Davido has found himself in a social media exchange after speaking out about the state of affairs in the country and admitting that entertainers, including himself, have not done enough to address issues affecting Nigerians.
In a post shared on his official page, Davido said many entertainers need to become more vocal about challenges Nigerians face, describing the situation in the country as one that demands more public engagement from public figures.
His comments, however, did not sit well with some social media users. One critic accused the singer of being performative and questioned his sincerity, while also directing harsh words at him.
Davido responded by rejecting claims that he belongs to any political circle and defended his history of speaking publicly on national matters. He referenced moments where he had previously criticised government actions and said his views were not driven by political affiliation.
The exchange quickly gained attention online, with reactions pouring in from supporters and critics alike over the singer’s comments and response.
