Afrobeats superstar Davido has set social media abuzz with a bold claim that Lagos boasts the best nightlife in the world.
The Unavailable crooner made the statement during a recent interview on the Culture Knock Out (CKO) show, where he passionately spoke about the vibrant energy of Nigeria’s commercial capital.
When asked by the host about fun spots in Nigeria, Davido didn’t hesitate to name his city:
“There are so many interesting things to do in Lagos. We have amazing nightlife. I feel like we have the best nightlife in the world.”

In other news, Davido has strongly condemned the persistent portrayal of Nigeria as an unsafe and violent country, urging the world to look beyond sensationalized headlines and see the nation’s true essence.
During a recent interview on French-speaking media platform CKO, the music icon opened up about his journey, life between Lagos and Atlanta, and the progress of his musical career.
However, the conversation took a sharp turn when the host brought up the widespread perception of Nigeria as “dangerous.”
In response, Davido was quick to dismantle the stereotype, highlighting that danger exists all over the world, not just in Nigeria.
“Everywhere is dangerous! The Congo is dangerous, Benin is dangerous, Paris is dangerous, everywhere is dangerous. Even in Atlanta, you could go somewhere and get shot, so that makes it dangerous. Heck, the world is dangerous and it’s God that protects us,” he said.
