Davido explains why he’s no longer interested in joining politics

Afrobeats star Davido has revealed that he is no longer keen on joining partisan politics despite his strong involvement in past campaigns. He said recent events have made him reconsider how deeply he wants to be involved in Nigeria’s political space.

He noted that many people do not separate an artist’s personal political view from their music, which can turn support for a candidate into a source of constant backlash. Davido explained that he now prefers to support quietly from the background instead of being at the frontline of politics. He stressed that his priority is to keep making music and using his influence for positive causes without being dragged into endless political wars. The singer also hinted that […]

Konga: Davido should’ve shared N200m birthday donation with struggling music legends

Veteran Nigerian singer Konga has criticised the current generation of artists for not doing enough to support industry pioneers who are now struggling. Speaking on the Hits Don’t Lie podcast, he argued that Davido should have channelled his famous N200 million birthday donation towards helping music legends instead of giving it to orphanages. Konga said if he were on Davido’s management team at the time, he would have advised him to share the money among older stars facing hardship. According to him, giving about N5 million each to veterans like Baba Fryo, Daddy Showkey and others could have revived their careers and inspired a wave of powerful comeback projects. He lamented that many Nigerian music legends have been forced into menial jobs abroad due to lack of recognition and support at home. Konga questioned why younger artistes boast about global […]

Davido withdraws custody case over daughter Imade

Afrobeats star Davido has withdrawn his court case seeking joint custody of his first daughter, Imade Adeleke, with her mother, Sophia Momodu. The decision came after a tense court session in Lagos where his late son, Ifeanyi, was mentioned during arguments. Davido had filed the suit in 2024 at the Lagos State High Court in Yaba, asking for joint custody and unfettered access to Imade. He claimed he had been denied regular access to his daughter despite providing financial support for her welfare. During the most recent hearing, Momodu’s lawyer reportedly questioned Davido about the safety of his children, referring to the death of his son Ifeanyi in 2022. The singer later described the comment as a “low blow” and said it deeply hurt him and his family. In a statement shared on social media, Davido said he had decided […]
