Nigerian music star Davido has triggered fresh discussions about his long-standing rivalry with fellow Afrobeats singer Wizkid after a video showed him enjoying Wizkid’s popular song, Ojuelegba, at Zlatan Ibile’s wedding in Lagos.
The footage, which circulated widely on social media, captured Davido singing and vibing to the hit track during the star-studded celebration held over the weekend. The moment attracted attention because of the years of comparisons, online exchanges and rivalry associated with both artistes and their fan bases.
Following the video’s circulation, several Nigerians took to social media to encourage the two music stars to put their differences aside and consider making peace. Some fans expressed hope that reconciliation could lead to future musical collaborations between the highly celebrated artistes.
While some users described the moment as a positive sign, others questioned whether the rivalry between the singers was as serious as it often appears online. Some also argued that fans may have contributed to prolonging the tension through constant arguments and comparisons.
Wizkid was reportedly absent from the wedding, although his music featured during the celebration. Davido’s reaction to Ojuelegba has since renewed calls among fans for unity, with many hoping that the two stars can move beyond the rivalry and give their supporters more opportunities to enjoy their music together.
