Grammy-nominated singer Davido has argued that Lagos has the best nightlife in the world.

According to the Afrobeats star, the city offers an unparalleled experience with amazing nightlife, great restaurants and plenty of exciting spots to explore.

Speaking on the Culture Knock Out podcast, he said: “There so many interesting things to do in Lagos. We have amazing nightlife. I feel like we have the best nightlife in the world, we have good restaurants. Everything is there in Lagos.”

Netizens have expressed mixed reactions to Davido’s claim.

While some people appreciate his efforts to promote the city, others are skeptical and critical.

@ThePhysicsOfgod suggested that Davido’s statement might be a form of damage control after facing backlash for demarketing Nigeria in a previous interview.
“This must be damage control after being bashed for demarketing Nigeria in his other interview. Lagos has the best nightlife in the world ke,” he wrote.

@Onuohajude8, raised concerns about safety, warning that visitors might lose their phones or even their lives if they’re not careful.

“If u are not careful after the night life u lose ur phone or ur life,” he wrote.

But @Chief_Big360 commended Davido for consistently promoting Lagos in his interviews.

“Sentiments aside, Davido impresses me with the way he promotes Lagos on any chance he has in interviews,” he wrote.

@Here4buz questioned the purpose of Davido’s recent interviews, given the poor performance of his last album on the global charts.

“But wait o, what is really the objective of these interviews; I am asking out of genuine curiosity because his last album performed very poorly on the global charts after countless interviews,” he wrote.
