Davido Fires Back at T-Dot: ‘Why Your Papa No Hustle’

Davido Fires Back at T-Dot: 'Why Your Papa No Hustle'

In a heated exchange on social media, Nigerian music star Davido has thrown a sharp retort at singer T-Dot after being labeled a ‘daddy’s boy.’ The clash stems from an ongoing feud involving Davido, DJ Tunez, and Burna Boy, which has now drawn in T-Dot.

DJ Tunez, known for working with Wizkid, recently sparked controversy by reposting a photo of Wizkid in an outfit similar to one Davido wore, captioning it ‘Original, no be fake.’ Davido perceived this as a direct insult and fired back, mocking Tunez over a previous altercation with Burna Boy where Tunez was knocked down. Davido tweeted about Tunez being on the floor, taunting him.

T-Dot stepped in to defend DJ Tunez, arguing that Tunez was outnumbered and showed courage by punching Burna Boy’s associate. He then criticized Davido, claiming the singer has never stood on his own without his father’s wealth and security. ‘You never stood no where on this earth 10 toes down without your dad’s money, security, and your boys,’ T-Dot wrote.

Davido wasted no time in responding, dismissing the ‘daddy’s boy’ narrative as stale. He fired back, ‘Your daddy your daddy nah only thing Una know … why ur papa no hustle … shut up n slide for Tunez.’ He added that T-Dot’s frustration stems from inheriting his father’s lack of success, saying, ‘Na frustration you see inherit from your papa e reach to dey vex.’

The exchange highlights the ongoing tension in the Nigerian music scene, with fans and artists alike taking sides in the heated rivalry between Davido and Wizkid’s camps.

Asake Opens Up About Hidden Talents and Lagos Influence

Nigerian Afrobeat star Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake, recently opened up about his journey in the music industry, expressing gratitude for his global recognition while acknowledging that many exceptionally gifted artists remain undiscovered. In a candid conversation with Spotify, the singer known for hits like ‘Sungba’ admitted that he is far from being the most talented musician out there. ‘I’m happy because there are a lot of people who make music out there and a lot of people who are more talented than me,’ he said. ‘I’m thankful to God that I’m able to use the talent He gave me—not only locally but also globally. So for that, I give all thanks to God.’

Speaking further, the ‘Organise’ crooner credited Lagos as the city that shaped his artistry and personal growth. Having moved to Lagos after graduating from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, the singer revealed that the bustling metropolis was instrumental in his transformation into adulthood. ‘Lagos taught me how to live like a man. Lagos inspired most of my songs,’ he stated. The artist emphasized how the city’s energy, struggles, and vibrancy have been a constant source of inspiration for his music.

Asake also reflected on the humble beginnings of his career, noting that he often wonders why other musicians with equal or greater talent have not received the same level of recognition. He described feeling humbled by his own success, attributing it to divine grace rather than personal merit. ‘There are many musicians far more talented than me but not heard,’ he added, underscoring a sense of solidarity with peers who remain in the shadows. The interview highlighted Asake’s down-to-earth personality and his ongoing commitment to honoring his roots while embracing his international platform.

Goke Bajowa and Boye Best Resolve Copyright Dispute at Album Launch

Goke Bajowa and Boye Best Resolve Copyright Dispute at Album Launch

The long-standing copyright disagreement between gospel icon Goke Bajowa and fellow artist Boye Best has finally been laid to rest. The two music stars made peace during Boye Best’s album launch event held in Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Wednesday evening.

Just days earlier, Bajowa had publicly threatened legal action against Boye Best for allegedly using his classic track ‘Iwo Ko Lodami’ in promotional materials for the album launch without permission. The promo clips created the impression that Boye Best owned the song, which angered Bajowa.

In response, Boye Best took to Instagram to deny the allegations, explaining that a lounge manager had produced the promotional video without his knowledge or consent. He expressed regret over the misunderstanding.

However, in a now-viral Instagram video shared by Bajowa on Thursday, the two artists were seen performing together on stage during the album launch. In the clip, Bajowa embraced Boye Best and spoke warmly: “One love, one family. Boye is a good person. Many people have told me about him but I didn’t believe it. I think I will have to agree now with what I have seen in the last four days. God bless you. We will do a collaboration that people can stream and tidy up the paperwork.”

The event also drew several notable figures, including singers Alayo, KS1 Malaika, and 9ice, as well as actors Adeniyi Johnson, Mr Latin, and Dele Omo Woli. A video of the reconciliation moment has been circulating widely on social media, marking a positive end to the brief dispute.

Paul Okoye – Stage Fall in Australia During ‘Forever’ Performance

Paul Okoye - Stage Fall in Australia During 'Forever' Performance

Paul Okoye, widely recognized as Rudeboy from the former Nigerian Afrobeats group P-Square, experienced an onstage mishap during a live show in Perth, Australia. While delivering their classic track ‘Forever,’ he lost his footing and tumbled off the stage.

The incident quickly went viral, sparking a wave of reactions online. Many social media users pointed to his decision to wear dark sunglasses during the nighttime performance as a possible cause. Others linked the fall to his ongoing separation from his twin brother, Peter Okoye, with whom he had previously performed as P-Square.

As reported by DAILY POST, the Okoye brothers parted ways professionally amid disagreements over financial transparency, royalty issues, and management of their music catalog. This split has been a recurring topic among fans and critics alike.

Some of the comments on the video included observations like ‘Dark shades at night increase the chance of missing your step by 1000%,’ while another user joked that his twin would have laughed heartily, though noting it could happen to anyone. A particularly poignant remark noted that ‘Every single person in that crowd knows only P-Square, not Mr P or Rudeboy.’ Others speculated that performing alone might have contributed, with one comment stating, ‘If they were two, he wouldn’t have fallen.’ A different perspective suggested that perhaps he was out of practice, as he hasn’t performed on stage in a while. Another humorous take claimed, ‘His twin will soon change Australia’s national anthem.’

Delta PDP Celebrates Supreme Court Ruling, Says Party Feud Resolved

The Delta State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed profound satisfaction with the recent Supreme Court verdict that upheld the Court of Appeal’s cancellation of the Ibadan Convention. In a statement, the party’s Publicity Secretary, Chief Kingsley Akpos Oturubo, emphasized that the ruling underscores the supremacy of the rule of law over popular sentiment.

According to the PDP, the apex court’s decision has effectively ended the protracted leadership crisis within the party. The statement noted, “Now is the time to refocus and strengthen our organization. To all Deltans, the PDP is more united and robust than ever. We are prepared to reclaim our electoral mandates in 2027.”

The party acknowledged the unwavering trust Deltans have placed in it and urged them to renew their commitment. “We call on the people of Delta State to enter into a fresh social contract with our party. The PDP remains the only entity that has delivered genuine democratic governance,” the statement added.

Highlighting its track record, the PDP asserted that under its leadership, democracy flourishes and citizens enjoy its benefits. “We are ready to provide effective governance to the people of Delta State, who are currently facing challenges. We have never let the electorate down, and 2027 will be no different. With your support, we will triumph and restore lost glory.”

The party also extended an olive branch to members who had defected to other parties, urging them to return to the fold. “To our members who have strayed, we will be gracious in victory. We invite you to join us for the journey ahead. The PDP is your home, and your interests will be protected.”

Reaffirming its democratic credentials, the PDP stated, “This party is the only truly democratic platform in Nigeria, and it will not treat its members as political orphans. We urge all members to return immediately as we rebuild and prepare to recover our mandates in 2027.”

The Delta State PDP congratulated the National Working Committee, led by Abdulrahman Mohammed, and National Secretary Senator Samuel Anyanwu, for their victory. “This success proves that those who adhere to the law will ultimately prevail, regardless of obstacles.

Turaki Faction Claims Supreme Court Ruling Leaves PDP Leaderless

Turaki Faction Claims Supreme Court Ruling Leaves PDP Leaderless

The recent Supreme Court verdict has plunged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) into a leadership crisis, according to a faction loyal to former Minister Tanimu Turaki. The group argues that the decision effectively eliminates any clear chain of command within the opposition party.

In a statement issued by its spokesperson, Ini Ememobong, the Turaki-aligned group described the ruling as a pivotal moment that threatens the party’s stability. They emphasized that the court’s judgment, which upheld earlier rulings by the Court of Appeal and the Federal High Court, invalidated a PDP convention held in Ibadan.

The Supreme Court’s five-member panel delivered a split decision, with three justices supporting the majority opinion and two dissenting. The majority determined that the appellants had violated an existing court order by proceeding with the convention, leading to the dismissal of their appeal on grounds of contempt. In contrast, the dissenting justices argued that the matter was an internal party affair and should not have been adjudicated by the courts. They also criticized the majority for raising legal issues not argued by the parties.

Ememobong warned that the combination of this ruling and previous suspensions of key party figures has created a void in leadership. “This effectively leaves the PDP without a defined leadership,” he stated. The faction urged party organs to take immediate steps to restore order and legitimacy, cautioning that failure to act could undermine Nigeria’s multi-party democracy.
