Comedian DeeOne told Davido to 'go and thank Wizkid FC' for standing by him in the VDM feud — and criticised Don Jazzy and Tunde Ednut.

Key points

Comedian and former Big Brother Naija housemate DeeOne has told Davido to “go and thank Wizkid FC” for their support during his ongoing fallout with social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM), saying “30BG wouldn’t have withstand the heat from ratels” without them. He spoke in a video posted to his X page on Tuesday 10 Nov.

“The level of support that you got is more than your fan base,” DeeOne said, addressing Davido directly. He said Davido does “not deserve their support and people like you enabled VDM”, and criticised music executive Don Jazzy and blogger Tunde Ednut over their perceived support for VDM.

The feud has drawn in several other figures. Producer Samklef claimed in a video on X on Monday that Tunde Ednut sponsored VDM and fed him information, and that Davido helped secure VDM’s release after his March 2024 arrest — those are Samklef’s claims, not verified facts. Israel DMW, Davido’s logistics manager, had earlier denied Davido plotted VDM’s arrest.

Neither Davido nor VDM has said anything new — the silence from the two principals is part of the story. DeeOne’s intervention pits two of Nigeria’s biggest fan armies against each other: Wizkid FC and Davido’s 30BG.
