According to Tufab, Davido accused him of referring to him as “Osakpolo,” a name he apparently dislikes. In the leaked message, Davido identified himself as a member of the “Aye” fraternity and addressed Tufab as a “Bird,” warning him to cease using the allegedly offending term. The message read, “My name is not osakpolo I’m warning u. Ok continue. That’s all I will say. I Dey warn u. Wetin wan happen. U be bird I be aye, Make we play d game.”
Tufab denied calling Davido “Osakpolo” and also distanced himself from any cult affiliation. He stated that he has never spoken negatively about Davido and expressed concern for his safety, given the frequency of such threats. By sharing the message publicly, Tufab aimed to protect himself and inform the general public, stating, “If anything happens to me, y’all know who to hold responsible.”
The incident has generated significant discussion on X, with many users condemning Davido’s alleged actions. This development highlights the complexities of celebrity interactions and the potential consequences of online disputes.

The Nigerian music industry has experienced its share of high-profile feuds and controversies in recent years. However, the alleged threat made by Davido against Tufab has raised concerns about the safety and well-being of individuals involved in these disputes. The incident serves as a reminder of the need for celebrities and their associates to maintain respectful and professional relationships, even in the face of disagreements or misunderstandings.
