Many expected celebrities like Don Jazzy, 2baba, Tiwa Savage, and others to congratulate him on his victory, but they all avoided him.
When a Twitter user made the same point, Davido concurred, crying out.
Sonjoe Kutuh, a Twitter user with the name, noticed that no Nigerian musician has commented on Davido’s FIFA song.
He complained that if it was Wizkid, everyone would be bowing for me.
He tweeted, “The Nigerian music industry is against Davido, no artist posted about Davido’s FIFA song, but if it was the other guy, everyone’s account will be twerking for him. Not his fault he was born rich”.
Davido replied him, “ME vs THE INDUSTRY!!!!! I LOVE IT!!”.
This isn’t the first time the singer is crying out over this.
It was recalls last year, when Davido celebrated his 10th year in music and on stage, his colleagues shunned him.
Only a few of his friends, including celebrity barman Cubana Chiefpriest, took to social media to hail the singer for his contribution to the music industry and for bringing other young artists to the limelight.
A Twitter user identified as wande spotted that many of Davido’s colleague completely snubbed him on the occasion of his 10th anniversary in the music industry.
According to the Twitter user, most of the praises Davido got for his 10th anniversary came from his fans as his colleagues were all acting blind.
Responding to this, the sensational singer made a joke of the situation, saying not being congratulated or celebrated by his colleague is not a topic for discussion.
