Cynthia Morgan criticizes Davido for being ‘annoying’

• Cynthia Morgan stated that Davido’s focus on the elections was merely a publicity stunt, arguing that he doesn’t understand the everyday life of the typical Edo man.

Nigerian singer Cynthia Morgan has criticized her fellow artist Davido for his views on the ongoing controversy surrounding the Edo State gubernatorial elections.

On September 22, 2024, she took to her Instagram story, saying, “If you know me, you would know l am very apolitical but this Davido is more annoying than I thought.”

Cynthia Morgan stated that Davido’s focus on the elections was merely a publicity stunt, arguing that he doesn’t understand the everyday life of the typical Edo man.

She wrote, “Since you’ve been screaming your mum was from edo State, I have never seen you visit her family house neither have you ever mentioned the village or family she is from it has only been a propaganda thing for you. Please leave edo people alone. You’re not from Edo state neither do you know the struggles of an average edo man or woman. Asue is the man. Nigerian govt is not a family business.”

Her post follows Davido’s comments on X, where he criticized the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and shared his worries about the elections. When several users on X questioned why he cared about the elections, Davido explained that it was related to his late mother’s background.

He wrote, “My mom is from Edo for those wondering why I’m interested in the election … but we as Nigerians should be concerned sha .. @inecnigeria shame on you I know how many times I had to come in here and rant before they got it right in Osun ! It’s really bad . God help us.”

The singer’s post sparked a discussion with X users, which resulted in many follow-up posts.

In another post, he wrote, “Una don Dey one group chat Dey do turn by turn !! NOTHING WEY UNA FIT DO !! NOTHING !! U DONT EVEN HAVE ACCESS TO UR OGAS LIKE ME ! UNA BE STAFF I BE FRIEND!!
