Afrobeat sensation Davido has sparked controversy with his recent assertion that Nigeria is comprised of only three tribes: Yoruba, Igbo, and Benin.


Speaking during an interaction with renowned American content creator Kai Cenat, who is currently in Nigeria for a documentary project, Davido made the statement while hosting Cenat in Lagos.


In a moment of apparent oversight, Davido confidently stated, "We have three tribes in Nigeria. There's Yoruba. My father is Yoruba. And in Nigeria, wherever your father is from, that's where you are really from. So my father is Yoruba. My wife is from Igbo. And my mother is from Benin. I'm three tribes in one."


This declaration, however, contradicts official demographic data. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, Nigeria boasts a rich tapestry of ethnic diversity, with a reported 371 distinct tribes. Among these, the most populous are the Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba communities.
