Popular Nigerian artist Davido expressed discontent after his name was used to generate buzz by a popular blog.
Instablog had earlier posted a video to X (Twitter) of three kidnappers who had been apprehended by the residents of Victory Estate, Ago Palace, Lagos State. In the video, the leader of the three was being questioned.
One of the questions he was asked was, “What is your name?” to which the kidnapper replied that his nickname was Davido, he said;
“Davido is my nickname. I came to kidnap.”
This outrageous statement of his was then used by the blogsite to craft a headline that deceptively referred to “Davido” as a kidnapper.
It read; “Davido and two others apprehended for kidnapping in Lagos”.
This then caught the attention of the singer who was less than pleased that his name had been used in such a manner.
Replying to the original post he wrote, “One day go be one day…..continue…my karma no dey always tey”, expressing his displeasure.
The article went viral, garnering massive backlash from the people online which made Instablog to promptly delete the post, wiping evidence of what they had done from the internet.
