An associate of Nigerian music star Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has stirred controversy after publicly alleging that if any harm comes his way, Afrobeats rival Davido should be held responsible.
In a viral social media post on Thursday, the unnamed associate claimed he had received threats linked to the ongoing rivalry between the two superstar camps. While he did not provide details, he insisted that Davido should be considered accountable should anything happen to him.
“I want the world to know this now. If anything happens to me, hold Davido responsible,” the post read, sparking heated debates across entertainment circles.
The allegation has fueled fresh discussions around the long-standing tension between Wizkid and Davido’s fan bases, who frequently clash online over supremacy in the Afrobeats scene.
As of press time, Davido has not publicly responded to the claims. However, entertainment analysts caution that such accusations, if left unaddressed, could escalate tensions within Nigeria’s music industry.
Observers also note that celebrity rivalries, while common, can sometimes spiral beyond fan banter when personal associates get involved. They have called for restraint and urged both camps to avoid actions that could endanger lives or tarnish the global image of Afrobeats.
