A throwback post capturing Davido’s public fallout with Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson Okojie and her husband, Prince Odi, has recently resurfaced, shedding light on the rift between the prominent personalities.

Davido gives reasons why he cut ties with Mercy Johnson and husband

The revelation emerged in the comments section of a post by Eniola Badmus, where Davido openly expressed his grievances towards the couple. This occurred when Badmus, along with other industry colleagues, extended congratulations to Mercy Johnson on the reported birth of her fourth child several years ago.

In his comment, Davido didn’t mince words, alleging that Mercy Johnson and her husband harbored malevolent intentions, suggesting that they had ‘evil’ ingrained within them.

When a follower inquired about the reason behind his harsh statement, Davido reiterated, “Just evil set of People.”

Reports suggest that the rift between Davido and the Okojies escalated when the couple took legal action against the musician for his failure to attend the opening ceremony of their luxury hotel, Henod Luxury Hotels, located in Abulegba, Lagos.

Despite Davido’s initial announcement on his Instagram page confirming his presence at the grand launch, he failed to show up. The absence of the 27-year-old artist led to disappointment, with efforts to reach his management team proving futile as they ceased communication.

Social media reactions poured in following Davido’s remarks, with users expressing a range of sentiments. PinkDuchess characterized Davido’s comment as derogatory, while others like Khojo Ghost and Swudy6e70 expressed surprise and disappointment. Cole Collins summed it up succinctly, remarking, “Davido no get chills.”

The resurfacing of this throwback post reignites interest in the dynamics of celebrity relationships and the complexities that sometimes lead to public confrontations.
