Fans and social media followers of Nigeria’s two award-winning singers, Tiwa Savage and David Adeleke, a.k.a, Davido, have weighed in on the public spat between them.
Tiwa had petitioned the police, accusing Davido of uttering disrespectful words in reaction to an Instagram Story which included herself and Davido’s Baby mama, Sophia Momodu.
She expressed disappointment at Davido’s threats and reminded him of how she stood by his family, especially when he lost his son, Ifeanyi.
Tiwa claimed to have received calls from mutual connections seeking to know what she did to upset Davido and also questioning her relationship with Sophia.
The petition reads in part, “On the 23rd of December, I made a post which included myself and Sophia Momodu’s Instagram Story- a feature on Instagram which allows you to put up a post for twenty-four hours, and MR. DAVID ADELEKE sent messages to my manager who’s also part of his management team that I shouldn’t worry and should never say a word to him and that I was taunting him, uttering very đisrespectful, malicious and derogatory words to my person.
“I responded to MR. DAVID ADELEKE’s message and told him not to reach out to me, especially as I feel like I have been there for him and his daughter, Imade, and more importantly when he lost his son. The events of that day have also led to a barrage of calls and messages from our mutual connections, asking me what I did to MR. DAVID ADELEKE that he’s upset that I chose to maintain a relationship with Imade’s mother, Sophia Momodu, who he’s having issues with and also painting the exchange to look like I was the aggressor.”
Savage further alleged that Davido told their mutual connections to warn her to be careful in Lagos as she was going to deal with her.
“He has also told our connections to warn me to ‘be careful in Lagos because he was going to f”k me up’. This is beginning to feel like some form of online and offline harassment not just to me but also members of my team. The action of MR. DAVID ADELEKE is unethical and can be viewed as a direct threat to my rights to life, privacy, and dignity of my person,” she added.
Meanwhile, their mutual fans and followers have expressed their opinion about the matter. See the responses:
Davido’s daughter Imade and Tiwa savage’s son have been close friends for long while now,it will be gratifying for @davido to fix up with @TiwaSavage and for their kids sake💚

Conversation between Davido and Tiwa. SS gotten from both sides (davido and tiwa). There is no threat here, and the “picture” Tiwa said she took with Sophia that led to the whole thing is not here. He only sent her a post from instablog, the imade chat posted by Sophia

[Full Gist]: Davido, Tiwa, Sophia, Imade & TeeBillz.
It all started last year, when Tiwa Savage decided to adopt Sophia (David’s Ex) as a bestie.
Sophia started wearing ashawo dress & doing ‘we outside’ every day.
Davido was disgusted about it & felt disrespected.

The truth will always be out regardless, I hope E-diots who said Davido doesn’t want people he knows to associate themselves with Sophia will bury their stoopid heads in shame, the man just wants everyone to leave his son alone and that should be adhered too. https://t.co/QMHxb6HOGf
