Davido reacts as fans ask Afrobeats singer to steer clear of politics

Nigeria afrobeat superstar Davido




Afrobeats maestro, Davido, has bragged about his political sagacity to an X (formerly Twitter) user who offered unsolicited advice about politics.

Earlier, Davido made a remark about the Nigerian political clime, characterising it as a movie with special illusionary effect.

He posted: Nigeria politics and film trick.

A tweep, Papa Wemba who felt Davidos post was sparked by recent judgement in favour of the All Progressives Congress (APC), chided him for apparently being petty.

He said: Anytime wey APC get any good judgment you go come rush tweet¦

But the Timeless hitmaker denied harbouring any thought about judgement and warned Wemba to desist from supporting people he would never be able to dine with.

Davido replied: 1. Never said nothing about judgement. 2. The Pple wey you Dey defend ¦ u fit go chop for their house? But guess what? I CAN.

Another tweep, Victor Abisoye, taking up the matter, urged the Afrobeats singer to steer clear of politics, focus on his musical career and not ˜land his father in trouble.

According to Abisoye, politics had the ability to humble just about anyone and the singer was no exception to the rule.

Abisoye admonished: Politics will humble you, o Davido. Please stay away, face your craft. No go put your papa for trouble aabeg.

However, Davido didnt share Abisoyes sentiments about politics being able to serve as a humbling factor, especially for someone like himself.

Davido bragged in response: Me wey humble politics lol ask around. (The Nation)
