@DavidoPolice: “He meant “He need cane to flog Wizkid”

The long-standing rivalry between Nigerian music heavyweights, Wizkid and Davido, has flared up again following a heated exchange on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, July 22, 2025. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
Wizkid Declares Himself the Biggest

The drama started when Wizkid posted a cryptic tweet:

“Biggest 🦅”

The eagle emoji, often associated with Wizkid’s fanbase (Wizkid FC), was widely interpreted as a claim to being the greatest Nigerian artist.
Davido Fires Back

Moments later, Davido quote-tweeted Wizkid’s post with a sarcastic reply:

“For your parlor.”

He then shared a link to his impressive career milestones, further asserting his dominance as Afrobeats’ biggest global export.

The sharp clapback immediately set social media ablaze, with fans of both stars exchanging heated arguments under the trending hashtags #WizkidFC and #30BG.

It's well , cane is very available in the market. He can afford cane

You guys should remember this boys do this this for PR and keep the fans engaged.

Na mu-mu dey worry both of them including their senseless minions priding as fans

Are rivals? I don't think Davido will stoop so low for this after all.

So this is a news that makes nairaland front page. Seun your falloff may have begun

When I clocked 20, I cautioned myself never to argue about Davido/wizkid, Ronaldo/Messi. Who get money pass who and all those stuffs

I'd rather discuss, technology, business, innovations and all.

Emphasis on DISCUSS not ARGUE

Also, some people get emotional while arguing, you start Insulting someone's mother, raising your voice and wanting to start a fight

This shouldn't be a matter of importance.



Just two established artists fooling around..

Lazy Nigerian youths would join this. An idle mind is the devil's playground. It's a pity.

Billionaires fighting and also getting Elon’s money…
Win-Win you say



But again,what’s life without proper bedmatics skills seff,I’m here to solve all your woes

I’m older than both of them so I don’t need to mediate over Wetin no concern me

Just PR stunt to keep them both relevant.

Nothing serious

Davido my fav any time anyway
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

.. and to get more comments, views,likes, subscription and earn more money from the social media platforms

Please don't attempt to post censored words by misspelling them.
Don't promote shady investments like HYIP, MLM on Nairaland.
Please spell words correctly when you post, and try to use perfect spelling.

Wizkid and Davido don cook food for their fans to feast on. Make una dey there make dem dey use una brain

It is just so disappointing.Two men in their 30s with children who should be positive role models for their communities are instead always busy going back and forth at each other like pre-teens

Really I am tired of the noise around Wizkid and Davido. Even their music is not that quality anymore.

What if these 2 are doing it intentionally knowing they have deluded fans that will feed them with excessive traffic while they cash out

Kids be beefing without bodies dropping.

Social media beefs.

One of them is about to release album. Nigerians are very delusional and they will engage them.

This 2 think we are are not wise they no say Nigerians no dey reason their matter again they just want to trend untop bad economy. Evern cristiano and Messi done reign go who be una 2? Abeg make una shift make i see Peter obi

2 grown up adults just dey mumu themselves and the fan base dey mumu follow dem. 2027 dey around the corner instead of u to be active in the goings in the political space and flush out the bad eggs out of power, una dey follow 2 mumus dey mumu una sef, I weep for this generation aswear

These guys will just call themselves, use us catch cruise, and we go run comment

Fools with dumb followers. Watch how the fans will throw jabs at themselves.

These guys always giving blogs some headlines ND everyone will cash at your expense

This garrulous clown called Davido should learn to shut up at times except this is a premeditated clash between the two to push their careers.

What is Davido’s business with another person claiming the greatest ??

Na yesterday I know sey Davido na irritating clout chaser

People often forget that these lads are savvy businessmen. They understand the psychology of traffic and suspense, and they leverage it masterfully.

It’s been war btw Fcs since..

I Dey enjoy the gbasgbos btw them on TikTok
