Arrant nonsense! When David lost his son and almost every one was mourning, were they in anyway related to him? Both friends and foes etc showed compassion etc. is it until you are an A list celebrity, politician, etc that you qualify to earn such privilege? Truly the world has gone mad!!!

Hmmm

I am not a fan of Davido. I don't have any of his songs on my playlist. I am even against most of the things he uses to catch public attention.

But I think his song release is just a coincidence that should not be treated as a deliberate attempt to disrespect the late "Junior Pope". You can suspend your business just to chase clout without sincerely mourning the dead. You can sincerely mourn the dead without suspending your business. You can suspend your business and sincerely mourn the dead. The sincerity of mourning does not depend on suspension of business. Salutation is not love. Separate business from sentiment. Access Bank didn't go on holiday for even an hour to mourn Herbert Wigwe. If Junior Pope owned SoundCloud, would SoundCloud have gone down for a while because of his death?

Check the difference between Davido and Junior Pope. Davido is a musician, pope was an actor. Davido is a Yoruba with no family connection with Junior Pope who is an Igbo. Junior Pope was not like Cubana Chief Priest and Zubby Michael to Davido.

So, on what ground do you blame Davido? Junior Pope was not a kinsman, tribesman, friend or fellow musician to Davido. Even in Junior Pope's village, people didn't suspend their daily hustles. So, why is a song release by Davido an offense in this case? Did Davido purposely release the song in reaction to the death of Junior Pope? Is the song a diss to Junior Pope?

The same wrong mentality being used to condemn the boreholes Obi donated in the North is exactly what is being used against Davido here. That is the same wrong mentality being used to overhype the same Davido in many entertainment areas. It shows that a larger population of the society bases its judgements on sentiment and emotions, not on facts. I don't mean that Davido should not sympathise with the family of Junior Pope. Davido can postpone the release of his song without being sympathetic about the death of Junior Pope. Davido can release his song and at the same time sincerely sympathize with the family of Junior Pope. If Davido didn't or hasn't sympathised with the family of Junior Pope, attack Davido for that. But don't mix things up unnecessarily.

I appreciate your viewpoints. Quite broad and I take to this

You raped my Sis in 2015 August precisely As a Final Year Student that she was by then and she fought you legally to the point that you were suspended from the University, trust Tribalism, Cross Riverians Said you're their first Law Rapist of A Professor and you were reinstated despite the Court orders and ICPC restrains. 8 yrs letter you committed the same crime against numerous young ladoes that never knew about my sister's case. KARMA 👏😁 HAS LOCATED YOU, ROT IN JAIL WITH NO BENEFITS COS YOU'LL BE DISHONORABLY DISMISSED. Check my 2015 thread here about this same case here on Nairaland

Went back to read the thread you quoted.
The truth can never be muscled for ever but for a while ONLY.
I hope they will cite the 2015 case as evidence of his possible influence over "the judiciary ".
