Nigerian-American Afrobeats artist Davido has encountered criticism from fans following his enthusiastic announcement regarding his participation in the ongoing presidential election in the United States.
As election day approached in the US on October 5, 2024, Davido shared a photograph on X showcasing his ‘I voted’ sticker, expressing his joy at exercising his civil right for the first time.
However, his announcement was met with disapproval from numerous Nigerians, who accused him of lacking the same level of engagement regarding the Nigerian presidential elections in 2023. In response, many users on X took to the comments section to confront him about allegedly not voting in Nigeria.
A fan commented. “This guy is a hypocrite, you’ve never voted in any presidential election in Nigeria, but now you’re seeking validation from Americans,”
Another angry X user wrote, “You fit vote for yankee presidential candidate buh you cant vote for Nigeria presidential candidates, una just useless for this so called yeyebrity… make yankee ppl dey support u if dem don dey banta u for Twitter like that.”
The singer faced accusations of hypocrisy from his fans and other users on X after he revealed that he voted for the first time.
Social media personality Daniel Regha wrote, “Davido where was this energy during this Nigerian general election? U didn’t show proof of vote, didn’t show support to voters, or even bother to use ur platform to call on the INEC when there were reports of electoral malpractices across the country. But u are proud to vote in the US election? This is not the achievement u think it is.”
Another X user asked, “In your entire life? Not even in Nigeria?”
