Davido Says He Once Believed Nigeria Would Change but Lost Hope

David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has expressed heavy heart over government failure, unfairness, and the long-suffering of Nigerians.

Speaking in an episode online, Davido openly revealed that he thought genuine change was coming to Nigeria during the EndSARS protests but Nigerians quickly returned to their old ways.

He stated that those who claim to fight for Nigerians often change whenever they get into power.

Davido say that despite being from a lucky and influential background, he still fears losing his life.

Davido said Nigeria needs an immediate positive change.

“I was happy to see Nigerians protest during EndSARS.

I thought change was coming, but December came and people were partying.

Even me, who was initially hopeful about the movement got discouraged.

I was like we can’t kill ourselves.

We have kids and people we are living for.

“Once the government is bad, there would be hardship.

Davido said he can’t even advise people who are going through economic hardship because I am not going through what they are going through, even though I have my own struggles, too.

What I can say is, Nigeria, fix up.

The country has to change from politicians to citizens, everything.

“We can’t change our society until we change our mindset as a people.

Today, the same people that were protesting are campaigning for politicians.

Those who claim to fight for the people often change when they get power,” he stated.

“Every venue will sell out; I will demand $500K if I tour with Wizkid” – Davido

Afrobeats superstar Davido has expressed confidence that a joint tour with fellow singer Wizkid would sell out venues across the world, saying he would charge $500,000 per show.

Davido made the revelation during an appearance on the IONWANNATALK show, where he discussed the possibility of recording music and embarking on a joint tour with Wizkid.

However, he admitted that he was uncertain whether a collaborative song between them would become a hit, citing the collaboration between D’banj and 2Baba as an example.

The singer also disclosed that he and Wizkid had not recorded a song together in about 10 years, insisting that their inability to collaborate was not because they could not work together.

According to Davido, he and Wizkid had simply not been in the same mental space, while acknowledging differing opinions about whether their rivalry had contributed to their individual success or whether working together would further boost their careers.

“If Wizkid and I do a song together, I don’t know if it will pop because when D’banj and 2Baba did a record together, it didn’t really pop

If we tour together, I’ll ask for $500,000 per show because I know every venue will sell out.”

He also spoke about the importance of maturity in resolving disagreements, noting that it takes maturity for someone to acknowledge when their feelings towards another person have changed.

“I felt that way at some point but not anymore, and it takes a great man to do that,” he said.

He added that he had informed members of his family that any of his children without a DNA result would not be recognised as his child if anything happened to him.

Explaining his position, Geh Geh said, “Why? Because modern problems require modern solutions.”

He also spoke about inheritance in his tradition, claiming that when a man dies, his possessions, including cars, money, houses and even his wife, may be shared, but his children are not.

According to him, fatherhood comes with the responsibility of raising and providing for one’s children, which he described as one of the most important responsibilities a man has.

“I had to see for myself” – Gilmore shares two-year experience with the Mercedes-Benz CLA his family opposed

Content creator and skit maker Gilmore has recounted how he ignored his mother and aunty’s advice against buying a Mercedes-Benz CLA, revealing that he has driven the car for two years without experiencing any major problems.

Speaking during an appearance on #WithChude podcast, Gilmore explained that his aunty warned him against purchasing the vehicle because of its alleged air-conditioning problems, despite never having owned one herself.

He added that both women cautioned him about the car’s fuel consumption and possible engine faults, even though neither had personally used the model.

“My aunty told me not to buy a Mercedes CLA because it usually has AC problems, and she has never owned one before. Even my mother too. The two people wey dey advise me never use wetin them dey advise me for, they just dey hear am,” he stated.

Gilmore argued that people often project their personal beliefs onto others, urging individuals to think independently rather than blindly accept advice, even from their parents.

“People project their own mentality onto others. You have to have a mind of your own, even to your parents. Telling me that it consumes fuel and does have engine problems, but have you ever experienced that engine problem before?” he questioned.

He disclosed that he eventually bought the Mercedes-Benz CLA and had driven it for two years, experiencing only minor issues with the air conditioning and no major problems.

Gilmore added that he planned to change the car soon, maintaining that personal experience should matter when making decisions rather than relying solely on what others have heard.

His remarks have highlighted conversations about family advice, car ownership and the importance of making independent choices.

Nigerian matchmaker Lege Maimi has called out a woman identified as Bisola, accusing her of hiding her twins from a UK-based man she met through his matchmaking platform.

He allegedly recorded it and confronted her around 2 a.m., prompting her to admit she had twins and plead with him to continue their wedding plans.

“Bisola, you used stealing by trick to scam a man on my page. I’ll make sure you pay back all that money,” he added.

The allegations have drawn attention to honesty and financial trust in relationships. However, they have not been independently verified, and Bisola’s response was not included in Lege Maimi’s account.

Mercy Aigbe slams bloggers over Toluwanisings’ family dispute

Nollywood actress Mercy Aigbe has criticised bloggers interviewing members of the family of late gospel singer Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, popularly known as Toluwanisings, amid an ongoing disagreement over his burial arrangements.

The actress accused some bloggers of worsening tensions between the deceased’s widow and his family instead of allowing them to grieve privately.

In a post shared on her Instagram page, Aigbe questioned the apparent lack of compassion surrounding the controversy, noting that the singer’s  death had left behind a grieving wife and two young children.

She stressed that the bereaved family needed privacy, support and time to mourn, rather than having their disagreement turned into online content.

“Have we lost our sense of humanity? What happened to compassion?

Must everything become content? Must every family disagreement become public entertainment?

Whatever disagreements exist, can we allow this family some dignity and privacy to navigate their grief?

Not every situation needs a microphone. Not every conflict needs an audience. And not every tragedy should become an opportunity for engagement. Sometimes, the most humane thing you can do is put the camera down,” she said.

Aigbe urged bloggers and others covering the dispute to consider the emotional toll their actions could have on the widow, the children and other members of the family during this difficult period.
