Nigerians react as Wizkid resumes his fight with Davido
On October 1, 2024, the long-standing rivalry between Nigerian music stars Wizkid and Davido escalated once again, sparking a wave of reactions across social media.
The drama unfolded when Wizkid posted a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “Beg me! just like”…”—a comment widely interpreted by fans as a jab at Davido, referencing a viral video involving him.
Shortly after, an X user asked Wizkid, “So if you no beef @davido your song won’t sell??” to which Wizkid responded, “I don’t beef wack niggas! We all know he’s wack! No talent!”

This reply intensified the tension, with many fans taking sides and criticizing the ongoing feud.
Nigerians on social media have been quick to express their thoughts on the issue.
Here are some reactions:
Social media personality Daniel Regha slammed Wizkid, saying, “Wizkid claims Davido is a “wack” artiste with ‘no talent’, but forgets one thing he (Wizkid) wouldn’t be where he is today without Davido. His rivalry with the ‘No talent’ artiste keeps his relevance to this day. And lyrically speaking, none is superior to the other.”
“Wizkid, you can’t be talking about ‘mids’ when you yourself have not dropped a hit song for years; And mind your language,” Regha wrote in another post.
