After which, the singers have also thrown heavy digs at each other on different occasions.<\/p>\n<p>In July 2022, Wizkid appeared to have offered an olive branch to Burna Boy and Davido after he downplayed the rivalry between them at the 2022 Afronation music festival in Portugal and said, \u201cI want to tell you tonight, Starboy, I got love for Burna Boy, I got love for Davido, and I want to thank all our fans for supporting us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dropping the big news on his Instagram stories on Wednesday, 32-year-old Wizkid said, \u201cAfter my MLLE tour, David and I are going on tour. Save your coins. I don\u2019t want to hear pim.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Confirming the development on Instagram, Davido, who spotted the announcement on Tunde Ednuts\u2019 page, clicked the \u2018like\u2019 button.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, this generated a lot of mixed reactions on social media, especially among Davido\u2019s fans, who are called 30BG, and Wizkid\u2019s fans, known as Wizkid FC.<\/p>\n<p>A Twitter user, Sally Suleiman, wrote, \u201cWizkid and Davido going on a tour is all you need to know that 2023 is a great year for us. 30BG versus Wizkid FC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another fan on Twitter posted, \u201cWizkid and Davido on tour? What will toxic fans do with their anger? I always knew that these two were secret friends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lordoye1: \u201cDavido and WizKid love story is like two lovers that will always find their way back with each other no matter how people and circumstances try to tear them apart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yea_I_am_Him: \u201cBut honestly, this will be like a reborn of AfroBeat. It\u2019ll change Nigerian music and kill off toxicity and unnecessary competition. This is Growth, and we deserve to witness it. Thanks, Davido, for accepting to corporate in growing a dying career.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>issySZN: \u201cWe don\u2019t want the tour. Wizkid wants to use Davido to revive dead album.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adeleye13673967: \u201cWithout Davido wizkid sold out 02Arena 3 times under 35 min without Davido Wizkid headlined one of the biggest festivals in US, even headlining the show over the like of Rikky Ross and Tyga in their country Wiz MIL of 2020 is still on BB world album chart, and OBO fans think wiz is finished.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AlwaysTee10: \u201cAlmost everybody is against this wizkid and davido\u2019s tour, including me. Wizkid is trying to tap light from davido cus he knows he is falling gradually. He recently dropped an album, and it flopped within a week, and you guys think it\u2019s love? No, it\u2019s not love, @davido don\u2019t accept.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking, Daniel Regha said, \u201cWizkid going on tour with Davido makes absolutely no sense. He\u2019s been snubbing Davido for years and doesn\u2019t address Wizkid FC when they troll, but all of a sudden, he plans a joint tour now that his star power is dropping. Why not with Burna? Davido shouldn\u2019t accept this. No offence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
