'Nigeria made you' - APC chieftain Joe Igbokwe asks Davido to retract his statement about the country's economy

APC chieftain Joe Igbokwe has asked singer, Davido to retract his statement about the Nigerian economy being in Shambles.

Davido was a guest on a Radio programme in the U.S. last week where he asked Nigerians living in the county not to leave following Trump’s victory in the presidential 2024 election.

According to the singer, the Nigerian economy is in shambles at the moment, so staying in America would be a better option.

"Leave America and go where? Go back where? It's not cool back home. My country now, the economy is in shambles. The exchange rate is messed up. Alot of stuff not going well. The economy is not just good anymore. The prices are too high. Imagine a country that produces oil. We produce the oil and we paying more money for oil than a country that imports the oil," he said.

However, Igbokwe has picked fault in Davido’s comment, saying that the singer should retract his statement as soon as possible because Nigeria “made” him.

He wrote: "My in-law Davido has made me sad by telling the world and America that Nigeria's economy is in shambles. This is very sad. I will advise him to retract the statement asap!! Nigeria made Davido"
