Cynthia Morgan calls Davido out over being ‘annoying’
Amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the Edo State gubernatorial elections, Nigerian singer Cynthia Morgan has publicly criticized fellow artist Davido for his stance on the matter.
On September 22, 2024, Morgan expressed her views on her Instagram story, stating, “If you know me, you would know I am very apolitical, but this Davido is more annoying than I thought.”
She went on to claim that Davido’s involvement in the elections was merely propaganda, arguing that he could not genuinely relate to the everyday struggles of the average Edo citizen.
She wrote, “Since you’ve been screaming your mum was from edo State, I have never seen you visit her family house neither have you ever mentioned the village or family she is from it has only been a propaganda thing for you. Please leave edo people alone. You’re not from Edo state neither do you know the struggles of an average edo man or woman. Asue is the man. Nigerian govt is not a family business.”
Her post comes after Davido criticized the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and highlighted his concerns about the polls. When many X users expressed concern over his involvement in the elections, Davido said that it originated from his late mother’s ethnicity.
He wrote, “My mom is from Edo for those wondering why I’m interested in the election … but we as Nigerians should be concerned sha .. @inecnigeria shame on you I know how many times I had to come in here and rant before they got it right in Osun ! It’s really bad . God help us.”
