A Night of Tension: Davido and Wizkid Snub Each Other in London Nightclub
In an unexpected turn of events, Nigerian Afrobeat superstars Davido and Wizkid found themselves in the same nightclub in London, only to snub each other in what many fans have interpreted as a notable moment of tension. The incident was captured and shared on social media by Adesope Olajide, host of the Afrobeat Podcast, who documented their simultaneous presence at the venue with videos posted shortly after midnight on Saturday.
According to reports, Davido was already inside the club, enjoying the atmosphere when Wizkid arrived with his crew. Despite being in such close proximity, the two artists notably did not exchange greetings, a decision that has sparked curiosity among fans and observers of the Afrobeat scene. The situation escalated when Wizkid reportedly left the nightclub shortly after his arrival while Davido remained and continued his festivities.
This lack of interaction has reignited discussions about the ongoing rivalry between the two icons, both of whom have significantly influenced the global popularity of Afrobeat music. As their individual careers thrive, moments like this highlight the complexities of relationships within the music industry, particularly among top-tier artists.
Fans remain eager for reconciliation, but for now, this incident serves as a reminder that the world of music is often accompanied by personal tensions and intricate dynamics.

The Nigerian film industry is in mourning following the death of Kayode Peters, a renowned filmmaker and producer. The news was announced by his family on his official Instagram page, stating that he passed away peacefully on the morning of Saturday, June 28, 2025, in Toronto, Canada, after a long illness.
Peters, fondly known as KP, was celebrated for his contributions as a filmmaker, actor, and producer. He was known for his role as Koko in the popular sitcoms “Twilight Zone” and “Flatmates” in the early 2000s. His work also extended to stage plays and sitcoms like “Extended Family” and “Being Farouk,” significantly impacting Nigeria’s contemporary theatre and television landscape.
He is survived by his wife, Alexander, and their children. Funeral arrangements are underway, and further details will be shared by the family in due course. The industry and fans alike will deeply miss his warmth, generosity, and contributions to Nollywood.
Popular Nigerian skit maker, Carter Efe, has reportedly lost access to his Instagram and TikTok accounts. This development follows recent criticism leveled against Afrobeat artist Wizkid during a TikTok live stream.
Efe’s comments, in which he accused Wizkid of pride, triggered a backlash from Wizkid’s fanbase, known as Wizkid FC. Subsequently, Efe claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that his Instagram account, boasting 1.8 million followers, was taken down by Wizkid FC. He later released an apology video stating that his TikTok account had also been blocked.
Efe has appealed to Wizkid and Wizkid FC for forgiveness and the restoration of his accounts.
Gabriel Oche Amanyi, known as Terry G, has asserted his significant contribution to the Nigerian music landscape. The “Akpoko Master,” pioneer of the “Street-hop” movement in the 2010s, stated that his influence is undeniable when discussing cultural impact within the Nigerian music industry.
His comments, made via social media on Wednesday, arrive amidst ongoing discussions regarding impact and legacies, spurred by the recent exchange between Odumodublvck and Blaqbonez.
In his statement on X, Terry G declared, “You can’t talk about cultural impact in Nigeria without talking about Terry G. I am the culture!” This pronouncement underscores his belief in his lasting effect on the evolution of Nigerian music.
