On April 29, 2024, Nigerian music’s biggest names Wizkid and Davido resumed their long-standing beef as the duo brutally dragged each other online.
Although it’s uncertain when the feud between Wizkid and Davido started, it has now extended for over a decade.
Wizkid and Davido are two of Nigeria’s biggest artists with commercial success, longevity, brand identity, influence, and huge fan bases.

The feud between Davido and Wizkid hit a new low on April 29, 2024, with both superstars engaging in name-calling on X to the amusement and dismay of observers.
