A throwback post has resurfaced showing Nigerian singer Davido embroiled in a bitter exchange with Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson Okojie and her husband, Prince Odi Okojie.

The post, originating from a comment thread on Eniola Badmus’s post, exposes Davido’s disdain for the couple, accusing them of harbouring “evil” traits.

The drama unfolded when Eniola Badmus shared a congratulatory message to Mercy Johnson on the supposed arrival of her fourth child years ago.

Davido seized the opportunity to unleash his grievances, branding the couple as “wicked people” while begrudgingly extending his congratulations.

When probed by a concerned fan about the reason behind his spiteful comment, Davido bluntly replied, “Just evil set of People,” leaving many puzzled and curious about the underlying feud.

The genesis of this animosity traces back to Davido’s alleged failure to honour an agreement to attend the grand opening of the Okojies’ luxury hotel venture, Henod Luxury Hotels in Abulegba, Lagos.

Despite announcing his presence at the event on his Instagram page, Davido, who was on tour in America at the time, failed to show up, leaving attendees and organizers disappointed.

It is reported that Mercy Johnson and Prince Odi subsequently took legal action against Davido for his no-show, alleging a breach of the agreement.

Efforts to reach Davido’s management team proved futile as they reportedly stopped taking calls, exacerbating the situation.
