Davido Responds to Backlash Over Comment on Israel DMW’s Failed Marriage
Nigerian Afrobeat superstar, Davido, has addressed the criticism surrounding his recent remarks about the failed marriage of his logistics manager, Israel DMW. The singer faced backlash after a viral video showed him making a controversial comment about Israel’s estranged wife, Sheila, while boarding his private jet. In the clip, Davido was heard saying, “The bitch is regretting now,” which sparked outrage online.
The comment drew widespread criticism from fans and celebrities alike, with many accusing the artist of insensitivity. Music producer Samklef was among those who condemned Davido, stating that the singer displayed a lack of empathy and morals.
In response to the criticism, Davido took to social media to dismiss the outrage. Posting on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, the singer mocked his detractors, claiming that despite their anger, they would still follow his updates. “If dem like make dem hate us, dem go still view our status,” Davido wrote, tagging his associate Jerry Shaffer in the post.
While the criticism continues to stir debate online, Davido remains unfazed, maintaining his position and responding with nonchalance.
