It may seem as though Davido is set to ‘resurrect’ his previous beef with his rival, Wizkid.
It also seems as though the singer is set to make as much enemies as possible as regards the upcoming elections, which has now been confirmed to be postponed to the 23rd of February 2019.
Davido recently claimed that he was being threatened over his political ambition.
He is one of the many celebrities who has publicly shown interest in certain candidates politically.
Wizkid earlier in the week had advised Nigerians against voting for a candidate because a celebrity endorsed them.
“Politicians stop joking with people’s lives. You are responsible for the lives of millions of people and your decision affects all. Help make Nigeria a better place,” Wizkid wrote on Snapchat.
“Don’t let anybody wen don collect money influence your vote to tell u who’s right or not! Use your head! Vote wisely! I’m for whoever the people vote.
“Vote who you like…vote wisely. If you are old enough to get a PVC, you are old enough to think! Don’t sell your vote…your vote can make a difference! Go out and vote,” the singer added.
Immediately, Davido sent a subtle reply which reads; “Davido!! Person headache idiot. Imma haunt u for life “
Wizkid’s comment was backed by claims by an Instagram channel, that the StarBoy Records boss rejected millions from politicians to perform at their campaigns so as not to influence voters. @urfreshtv wrote;
@wizkidayo rejected millions of Naira politicians offered him to perform at their campaigns, he said he doesn’t want to influence the people of Nigeria for his own selfish interest
It should be noted that Wizkid liked the said post, which apparently confirms the page’s claim.
Sequel to this, Davido has gone on a shading spree again;

”It was going up towards my face so I threw up my hands to kind of block my face, at which point it grabbed onto my hand and wrist and from there it started to claw at my face and neck.
“And that’s when kind of my fear response turned into more of a fight response.
“Because I’m a recent cat owner, I know that the back claws are pretty dangerous when it comes down to an attack. And I was pretty worried about its claws just sinking into my my stomach and groin area.
“I was able to shift my weight and get a foot on its neck…I stepped on its neck with my right foot and just slowly after a few minutes I thought I would be getting close and then it would start thrashing again and I had a few more scratches that resulted from those thrashes at that point, and I’d say another couple minutes later it finally stopped moving.

A great-great-grandmother, who has six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren, was given an extra-special treat for her 100th birthday.
It was Doll Jenkins’ wish to have naked butlers for her birthday and the cheeky birthday wish was fulfilled when staff at her retirement home hired the buff butlers for her very special birthday party.
Residents at Milton Lodge made international news last year after they requested the naked hunks to come and serve a three-course meal. This happened after residents told staff they wanted to spend some time with a man.
Then, for Doll’s birthday this year, two hunks were invited back to join Doll, her family and staff at the home in Colchester, Essex to celebrate her big day last Friday.
Leigha Jones, senior carer at the home, said Doll had a great time with them.
She said,
Her face just lit up when they came in, she was beaming. We all sat in the lounge area waiting for them and when they came in she was a bit taken aback.
She told them to go and put some clothes on, but she soon came out of her shell and was flirting and smacking their bottoms.
She loved it and she kept asking them to come back and say goodbye to her properly.
Leigha said:
She kept asking if we could go and find the naked men again.
She is a lot younger at heart – she still gets around and walks when she feels strong enough and she still laughs and jokes.
The naked butlers, who are familiar to residents at the home, served dinner as part of the home’s Sparkle initiative, where staff raise money to grant the wishes of residents.

“He emphasized that he would close down his shop until he has performed his civic responsibility.
Now if a physically challenged man can think intelligibly like this, what stops you who is fit physically? I mean you are not stupid now so I expect you not to behave stupid”

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s broadcast to Nigerians as a farewell speech that is less than a presidential address to the nation.
Shortly after the speech, Atiku in a statement on Thursday, February 14, through his special assistant on publication, Phrank Shaibu, faulted what he described as the president’s attack on the opposition in his nationwide broadcast, Vanguard reports.
“We see President Muhammadu Buhari’s attack on the opposition in his nationwide broadcast, Thursday night, as part of the many gaffes which have come to define last days of the Buhari Presidency, rather than an address to be taken seriously by Nigerians,” he said.
Atiku said Buhari’s conducts and latest negative comments against opposition elements in his nationwide broadcast does not reflect the attributes of a leader who is seeking to be re-elected for another term of office. The statement from the PDP candidate noted that a review of comments on Buhari’s Facebook page to the broadcast shows that many Nigerians were advocating for regime change.
When you compare these to the comments on HE Atiku’s page to his Facebook Live broadcast this morning, the contrast could not be greater. The final verdict is in the hands and fingers of the millions of voters this Saturday,”the statement read.
“As our candidate HE Atiku said in his final message of the campaign ‘Even if you are not voting for me, still come out to vote on Saturday. It is about Nigeria, not Atiku Abubakar. It is about you and your future.’” “So, we appeal to every eligible voter to express their will and contribute to our democracy.”
