“I’m the king of Nigeria” – Davido brags to a Saudi Prince

Nigerian music sensation, Davido Adeleke, stirred up quite the buzz when he introduced himself as the "King of Nigeria" during an unexpected encounter with an alleged Saudi Arabian Prince in France.

In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Davido was seen mingling with familiar faces in Paris when he crossed paths with a man introduced to him as a Saudi royal. Without hesitation, the singer playfully introduced himself as the King of Nigeria before posing for photos with the Prince.

This bold statement has sparked a whirlwind of reactions online, with fans and critics debating whether Davido’s self-proclaimed title was justified or over the top.

Some fans hailed him for his confidence and playful charisma, seeing it as a reflection of his status in Nigeria's entertainment scene. "He’s earned it! Davido is a true Nigerian King in music and culture," one fan commented.

However, others took a different stance. One X user, @JrBurna098765, sarcastically wrote, “Who made you the King of Nigeria? ???? You’re out here chasing fame your dad didn’t even ask for.”

Another user, @gaustinto1, admired the moment from a business perspective, saying, “Now that’s how connections are built – got those digits right away.”

The encounter comes on the heels of Davido opening up about his shift in demeanor since marrying Chioma Rowland-Adeleke. He explained how marriage has made him more grounded and intentional about his actions.

While Davido’s “King of Nigeria” title may not be official, it’s clear that his influence and confidence continue to grow, both at home and internationally.
