The music star and father of twins lashed out at a Twitter user who took shots at his family, accusing them of squabbling over the use of a private jet. Unwilling to let the jab slide, Davido clapped back with force, challenging the troll to provide evidence of any car owned by his billionaire father giving him just one hour to do so.
But that wasn’t the end. Davido also reignited tensions with fellow artist Portable, further fueling their long-standing feud that reportedly began during their encounter in the U.S. in 2024.

Obasempire reports that renowned comedian and vocalist Bright Okputa, known as Basketmouth, has elucidated the rationale behind subtly criticizing music sensation Ayo Balogun, also known as Wizkid, during Davido’s traditional wedding a fortnight ago.
It’s worth noting that Wizkid ignited discussions with a cryptic post following Davido’s release of his pre-wedding photos on social media.
In response, Basketmouth conveyed his observation that Davido’s wedding dominated social media attention, subtly implying indifference towards Wizkid’s tweet. This remark triggered considerable backlash, particularly from fans of the Star Boy.
In a recent video, Basketmouth revealed that his tweet shading Wizkid was a strategic marketing maneuver, foreseeing it would provoke controversy.
“Wizkid is my guy, what I did was a marketing technique, I knew it was edgy, it would get people talking and it did what I expected it to do, it worked in my favour” he said.
Sophia Momodu alleges that Davido’s sisters attempted to abduct Imade, their daughter, when she was three months old.
Davido and Sophia, his former partner, have recently been at the center of media attention due to a legal battle over parental rights.
The musician submitted a petition via his attorneys Olaniyi Arije and Okey Barrah to the Lagos High Court on April 17, 2024. He sought a court order granting him “unfettered and unrestricted access” to Imade who is aged nine.
Davido said he has been responsible for Imade’s education, housing, transportation, living expenses, health care, and periodic travel.
He, however, expressed concern that Sophia has been causing him emotional distress with her “utopian” demands.
He alleged that she also once denied him access to their daughter for up to “two years”.
Last month, Momodu responded to Davido’s lawsuit, arguing that she has never denied the singer access to their daughter.
Through her legal representatives Punuka Attorneys & Solicitors and Bimpe Ajegbomogun & Co., she claimed Davido “repeatedly threatened” to make her life “miserable” if she did not make herself “available to him sexually”.
In a legal document dated June 26, Sophia alleged that Davido connived with his sisters to “try and kidnap three-months-old Imade out of Nigeria”.
Momodu claimed Davido’s sisters tried to take her daughter away from me “permanently” under the guise of a holiday.
She revealed that it took the intervention of the immigration services to rescue Imade from Davido’s sisters.
Citing the incident, Sophia argued that the singer was “not fit to be a father”.
Her narration partly reads: “The applicant has demonstrated that he is not a fit father. He, in concert with his father and sisters, has tried on many occasions to kidnap our daughter and take her outside Nigeria and/or out of my reach without my consent.
“That at one time when our daughter was just three months old, she was kidnapped by his sister under the pretence that she was being taken on holiday by her whilst they were planning to take our daughter out of the country and out of my reach permanently.
“Due to the intervention of the Nigerian Immigration services, she was intercepted at the airport and apprehended for falsely representing herself as our daughter’s mother before they could leave the country, thus ensuring the safe return of our daughter to my custody.”
Nigerian dancehall sensation Madrina, formerly known as Cynthia Morgan, recently shared an intriguing tale about her relationship with Nigerian music mogul Olamide, stirring up a storm of excitement on social media.
In a captivating revelation on her Instagram story, Madrina recounted how Olamide, the esteemed YBNL chief, bestowed upon her a significant sum of N1 million in a gesture of benevolence.
This generous act deeply moved her and sparked admiration from fans across various social platforms.
However, Madrina’s decision to maintain a mysterious silence towards Olamide after this heartfelt gesture left fans eagerly anticipating more details.
She disclosed that despite the immense gratitude she felt towards Olamide for his kindness, she chose to sever communication with him.
According to Madrina, when she contemplated sharing Olamide’s act of kindness on social media, the rapper advised her against it, suggesting that the amount was too trivial to publicize.
Despite this, she emphasized the profound impact of Olamide’s gesture, contrasting it with her past experience of borrowing the same amount from her family, which was marred by insults.
Madrina expressed deep appreciation for Olamide’s humility and generosity, highlighting how his gift resonated with her on a personal level.
Cynthia Morgan wrote:
