Davido, the Nigerian music superstar, has once again captured Nigeria’s social media spotlight after gifting ₦10M to a female fan, a move that has reignited accusations of selective generosity. Critics argue that Davido’s lavish gifts predominantly target women, pointing to a pattern of high-profile giveaways that seem to favor female fans. This latest gesture comes amidst a whirlwind of controversies that have kept the singer trending.
The drama escalated when Davido clashed with influencer Ruth, mockingly dubbed "Fufu Ambassador" for her viral fufu videos, after she questioned his response to a subtle feminist critique from Diva, who advised him to ignore trolls. Davido’s sharp retort, threatening to unfollow Diva, and his subsequent insults toward Ruth, which many labeled as body-shaming, drew widespread backlash. Critics accused him of inconsistent behavior, juxtaposing his generosity with his harsh responses to detractors.

Simultaneously, a feud with a Wizkid fan, Yarloo, intensified the buzz. Yarloo mocked Davido’s private jet as “community-owned,” citing seven Adeles registered to it. Davido fired back, challenging Yarloo to show his father’s car, leading Yarloo to admit his father owned none before deactivating his account. These incidents have fueled debates about Davido’s wealth, his treatment of critics, and his selective benevolence, cementing his place at the heart of Nigeria’s social media storm on July 9, 2025.
