Nigerian music icon Wizkid has once again sparked controversy with a series of explosive social media posts aimed at fellow Afrobeats star Davido. In a post shared on Wednesday, Wizkid mocked Davido’s self-proclaimed title of “001,” stating, “The only time you’re 001 is when you’re in your house. You’re not 001 of nothing but Instagram followers!”

The heated exchange continued as Wizkid took jabs at Davido’s entourage, accusing the singer of surrounding himself with financially dependent individuals. He said, “Naija is a place the rich weaponize poverty, so you carry all these broke boys in real life and get them visas so they worship you.”

Wizkid, whose real name is Ayodeji Balogun, also threw shade at Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, known as the “Dancing Governor,” saying, “When you see people whose family trained them, you’ll know! You don’t see my uncle dancing online.” This remark was widely seen as a dig at Adeleke, who is often seen dancing on social media.

The controversy didn’t end there. Wizkid responded to claims that Davido received a larger payout from Puma, saying, “No! Puma is a big brand, but the budget they had for Africa wasn’t for me! Was cool for your client though!” He added that he turned down Puma’s offer, explaining, “I turned down Puma because they could no longer afford me. I wanted more! Way bigger than every artist you just mentioned!”

In response to criticism from Nelson Epega, CEO of Chatter, a social audio-visual platform, Wizkid fired back, saying, “First off, you can’t afford me, fool! You are doing business with the right person you can afford!” Epega had previously stated that his company would never work with Wizkid, labeling him an “uncontrollable psychopath” while praising Davido’s popularity.

Wizkid further stoked the rivalry, mocking Davido’s musical and personal abilities, saying, “You’re not as fly as me, can’t sing or make music like me, and you don’t make more money than me.” He also called Davido’s entourage “broke” and criticized Davido’s lawyer as “a dumb ass” for constantly being around him.
