Ace Afrobeats star, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has expressed his frustration over a blogger’s decision to use his stage name in a recent kidnapping story. The incident began when a blog on X platform shared a video of three suspected kidnappers with the caption, “Davido and two others apprehended for kidnapping in Lagos.” This alluded to the nickname of the gang leader, causing confusion among fans and netizens who thought the blogger was referring to the ‘Electricity’ crooner.
Reacting to the misleading headline, Davido threatened to take drastic action against such practices in the future. He reposted the news on his Twitter account, accompanied by a stern warning: “One day go be one day… Continue. My karma no dey always tey.”
Davido’s message highlighted his frustration with the spread of misinformation and the potential damage it can cause to his reputation. Many of his followers and supporters echoed his sentiments, calling for more responsible journalism and accurate reporting.
The singer’s reaction also draws attention to the broader issue of how easily misinformation can be disseminated in the age of social media. Public figures like Davido are often at the mercy of misleading headlines and sensationalist reporting, which can have significant implications for their personal and professional lives.
