Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, famously known as Davido, has stirred reactions on social media after proudly declaring his Igbo heritage in response to a tribal remark aimed at his association with the Igbo community.

The controversy began when an X user identified as Yakbel took to the platform to criticize Davido’s close ties with Igbos, warning the singer of potential betrayal due to his Yoruba background.

The user wrote: “Davido just dey carry Ibo full body, until when dem betray am before e rest. Yoruba boy dey frolick with Ibos in 2025, they want your head and everything you have to belong to them. You can never satisfy Ibos. Ibos are not people you surround yourself with as a Yoruba man.”

Rather than ignore the message, Davido delivered a calm yet powerful response that instantly went viral. He wrote: “Lol. I am Igbo by blood.”

The simple reply from the music icon not only shut down the tribal baiting but also sparked admiration from fans who praised him for embracing his roots and promoting unity in a country often divided along ethnic lines.

Known for his cross-cultural collaborations and deep ties within Nigeria’s diverse music scene, Davido has continually represented the fusion of different identities both musically and personally. His statement reinforces a growing call among entertainers to rise above tribal sentiments and focus on unity and shared heritage.

Davido’s response is now being hailed as a clapback with class and a reminder that Nigeria’s strength lies in its diversity.
