‘Mumu people everywhere’ — Davido hits X users over political views

Davido, the Nigerian singer, has engaged some X users who critiqued his political views in a heated conversation.

The drama started on Thursday evening after the Afrobeats star referred to Nigerian politics as a “film trick” in a terse post.

“Nigeria politics and film trick,” he tweeted.

Film trick is simply the illusion or special effects used in the theatre or movie industries to simulate the imagined events in a story or virtual world.

The tweet, however, did not sit well with some X users — who tackled Davido for airing his opinion on politics.

Papa Wemba argued that the singer is quick to tweet whenever the All Progressive Congress(APC), a Nigerian political party, gets a favorable judgment.

Victor Abisoye advised Davido to focus on “music instead of getting involved in politics” while Prince Adeshina urged the singer to “behave maturely”.

Replying in a flurry of tweets, the singer asked if the trolls could dine with the people they defend.

He also urged them to refrain from diverting his attention while he focused on making money in Australia.

“Never said nothing about judgement. The People wey you Dey defend… you fit go chop for their house? But guess what? I can,” he replied.

“Me wey humble politics lol ask around. Mumu People everywhere… Anyways Boutta land Australia and make a million dollars… convert that. Goodnight.

“You mean the former governor? Bingo who released you from cage today? From today your new name is Bingo. stop distracting me I am counting money.”

Ademola Adeleke, an uncle of Davido and the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), won the Osun state governorship election in July 2022.

Someone who is 23, 24 is trying to teach me how to live my life, someone who is not married is trying to tell me how to live my life,” he said.

I get jealous of Portable’s other women — Fiancee, Ashabi Simple

An actress, Akinyanju Omobolarinde, aka Ashabi Simple, who is also a fiancée of controversial singer, Habeeb Okiki, aka Portable, has stated that she sometimes gets jealous of the other women in her fiance’s life, she understands that it is due to the nature of his job.

She also described the ‘Zazuu’ singer as her mentor, who was always protective of her.

In an interview with Saturday Beats, she stated that despite his hectic life, the singer often dedicated time to her every day. She said, “When it comes to his relationships, he is very protective. When I see him with other women, I sometimes get jealous, but I caution myself, knowing that he is a celebrity. However, he is always open and that is better than hiding (keeping secrets). I am used to it all.”

Expressing admiration for Portable’s dedication to his craft, she said, “I strive to achieve what I want. I am not in competition with anyone. If I want to compete with anyone, that should be my husband, because he is also an entertainer. I look up to him; he is more like my mentor. Despite being made, he is still vibrant and full of energy.”

The actress added that while Portable often surprised her with gifts, she was not one to lazy around. She said, “If I am dating him because of his money, I would be tired by now. No one forces Portable to do anything, and I do not have a problem with that, because I do a lot for myself.  I have always been like that. Before I started my clothing business, I worked as a bus conductor, bartender, and I sold pieces of jewelry, before I started attending filmmaking class and working in the film industry as a manager. And, that was where I started making money.”

Reacting to Portable’s invitation to the Celestial Church of God, Goshen Land Cathedral branch, in Lagos State for a performance, Ashabi stated that it was not a crime. She added that the church’s planning committee must have discussed it with the church’s members before making such a decision.
