The two sensational Nigerian singers, Davido and Wizkid have locked horns on social media.
The duo engaged in a heated war of words on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The drama started in the early hours of Monday after the ‘Ojuelegba’ hitmaker mocked Davido and Don Jazzy, the Mavin Records head honcho.
Wizkid called Don Jazzy an “influencer” while taunting Davido with a video of him on his knees, pleading and crying after a fan asked him to release new music.
The singer’s posts attracted criticism from a segment of social media users, including celebrities.
In a flurry of tweets on Monday evening, the ‘Timeless’ hitmaker aimed a thinly veiled dig at Wizkid, implying that he is now online to take on his adversaries.
“When LIGHT comes darkness VANISHES!!! LETS GET ACTIVE!! Montego Bay we deyaaaaaaa. Dem no know ur gbedu again. I can’t wait till 20 years from now … enjoy ur time,” he wrote.
“They were trying to distract us baby no mind them.”
Amid Davido’s series of posts, Wizkid wrote: “U know what..no point. delusional niggas pray for y’all”.

Wizkid fired back at Davido who referred to as “my boy”. He also argued that Davido cannot attain his level in the music industry. He also described Davido as “an influencer” who cannot do without a “songwriter”.
I got nun to say to u my boy! I can retire today and you still not on my level. You be influencer with a song writer . Wish u well,” he wrote.
