Davido Sparks Outrage for Meeting Seyi Tinubu After FG Attacks: “Playing Both Sides?”

• A video of Davido chilling with Seyi Tinubu, Cubana Chief Priest, at the Abuja Polo event is currently trending
• Netizens call out the Afrobeats star for hypocrisy, reminding him of his past criticism of the Tinubu-led government
• Reactions flood social media, with many saying Davido always gets a free pass no matter what he does

Afrobeats superstar Davido is currently trending for all the wrong reasons after a new video emerged showing him bonding with Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigeria’s President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The viral clip, recorded at a Polo event in Abuja over the weekend, captured Davido in high spirits as he mingled with Seyi, nightlife promoter Cubana Chief Priest, and music executive Ubi Franklin. The trio appeared relaxed and all smiles, sharing hearty laughs and conversations.

This moment comes shortly after Davido paid a courtesy visit to the State House in Abuja, where he met President Tinubu alongside his 30BG team.

The Timeless crooner also stopped by to greet Senate President Godswill Akpabio, further solidifying his high-profile political engagements during his Abuja tour.

But while some hailed the singer’s charm and political maturity, others weren’t having it.

A good number of Nigerians flooded social media to accuse Davido of being inconsistent with his values, pointing out that he had previously slammed the APC-led government and lamented the hardship in the country. His sudden closeness to the ruling class, according to many, smells of double standards.
