The replies to Davido’s post were a mix of humor, support, and curiosity, reflecting the diverse ways his audience interpreted the message. Here’s a breakdown of some notable responses:

Several users highlighted Davido’s playful yet shady tone. For instance, @Hybrid_Ola replied at 08:16 UTC, saying, “Davido is petty 😂😂😂😂,” while @Dhavidote wrote at 08:19 UTC, “I like this pettiness, na wetin I use brush teeth this morning.” These reactions suggest that fans are familiar with Davido’s tendency to throw subtle jabs online, and many found it entertaining.

Some users directly asked if they were the target of Davido’s shade. @YKoluwaseun9 responded at 08:30 UTC with, “Na me you dey follow talk? omo you get mind o,” showing how the ambiguity of the post led to personal interpretations. Others, like @_Nsznn atpitied at 08:16 UTC, asked, “Wait. You Dey cook barbecue??” hinting at the possibility that Davido was shading someone specific, perhaps a rival or a personal contact.

One reply by @DiianaD_ at 08:15 UTC included a screenshot of a song titled “Banga boy, everybody want know” by Kai Cenat, Olamide, and Wizkid. This could hint that Davido’s post was a subtle dig at Wizkid, with whom he has had a long-standing rivalry. As reported by Fintech Gems in 2020, the tension between Davido and Wizkid has been ongoing, with Olamide once commenting on their “choko” (energy). The timing of the post, shortly after Kai Cenat’s visit to Nigeria in 2024 (where he met Davido and praised his wife Chioma’s cooking), might have stirred competitive feelings.
