Uche Maduagwu describes Davido’s N300 million gift as ostentatious.
Nigerian actor and social commentator Uche Maduagwu recently criticized Davido for what he perceived as ostentatious behavior regarding a charitable donation. Maduagwu expressed his disapproval on social media platforms following Davido’s announcement of a significant philanthropic commitment.
Davido, known as the King of Afrobeats, had publicly declared his pledge to donate a substantial sum of 300 million Naira (approximately $670,000) to support orphanages throughout Nigeria. Additionally, he provided evidence of the funds being transferred to his foundation’s account.
This philanthropic gesture by Davido elicited a range of reactions from the public. While some praised him for his generosity and urged other wealthy individuals in Nigeria to follow suit, others, like Uche Maduagwu, criticized Davido for what they perceived as a display of extravagance rather than genuine altruism.
He said, “GA Davido, this is no longer CHARITY, this Na show off. If you have to Screenshot the 300 Million Naira you allegedly credited foundation to prove it’s genuine, then something does not add up, since we no see the name of the Foundation in the Screenshot. It’s either this Na Show off or you Dey try hide something from us. DJ Cuppy gave over 5 Billion Naira to Charity in 2019 without any Screenshot. This is the First time I have seen this preposterous and unnecessary show off all in the name of giving, Davido, must you turn everything to SHOW OFF?”
