Nigerian Afrobeat icons Davido and Wizkid were spotted at the same nightclub in London, but the two stars avoided each other, reigniting speculations about their longstanding rivalry.
Host of the Afrobeat Podcast, Adesope Olajide shared videos of the encounter on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), with the caption on the post, “Davido and Wizkid currently partying in the same club in London.”
The video showed Davido already seated inside the nightclub when Wizkid walked in with his entourage.
Despite being in close proximity, the two superstars did not exchange greetings, continuing the cold tension that has marked their relationship over the years.
This snub came just days after Wizkid reportedly threw subtle jabs at Davido following the announcement of Davido’s first single of 2024.
Davido had revealed that the song, set to be a hit, was released in celebration of Nigeria’s Independence Day.
However, Wizkid appeared to take to social media shortly afterward to boast about his own success, fueling rumours of an ongoing dispute.
At nightclub, Wizkid reportedly walked past Davido’s table without acknowledging him while Davido was enjoying the night with his 30 Billion Gang crew.
Wizkid was at the club to support his official disc jockey, DJ Tunez, who was performing.
Following the encounter, Wizkid took to X to subtly boast about his influence, writing, “Everybody Dey find Big Wizzy,” a remark that many interpreted as directed at Davido.
This is not the first time the two artists have crossed paths in a club.
Last year, they were seen partying and even hugging at a Lagos nightclub, an encounter that briefly suggested their feud might be over.
However, in a recent social media rant, Wizkid claimed that Davido is the one who always initiated their reunions, alleging that the ‘OBO’ star “runs after him like a fanboy” whenever they meet.
