Angry Muslim Youths Burn Davido’s Poster In Maiduguri.
In a recent development, popular Nigerian singer Davido has found himself embroiled in controversy after sharing a video on his Instagram featuring his signee, Logos Olori. The video depicted a group of Muslim men dancing in front of a Mosque, which sparked outrage within the Muslim community.
The video quickly went viral, catching the attention of many Muslim devotees who found the content disrespectful and offensive. The clip showed the men dancing after offering their prayers, a scene that many believed undermined the sanctity of their religious practices.
Upon facing mounting pressure and severe criticism, Davido eventually took down the video from his Instagram account. However, this gesture was not enough to quell the anger of some Muslim youths who felt deeply hurt by the video’s content.
In Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State in northeastern Nigeria, a group of angry Muslim youths resorted to extreme measures to express their dissatisfaction. A disturbing video emerged showing these youths burning Davido’s posters as a form of protest against the controversial content shared on social media.
The situation escalated further when Kannywood Actor Ali Nuhu and other prominent Muslim celebrities publicly called on Davido to offer a sincere apology for the offensive video.
Davido allegedly received life threats from people who vowed to take the law into their own hands if he were to set foot in the northern regions of the country.
The threats were severe, with some even suggesting they would resort to violence similar to what happened to Deborah Samuel, though the accuracy of such claims remains uncertain.
As a consequence of this incident, there have been unconfirmed reports that certain parts of the North have banned Davido’s music, and he has been barred from visiting Dubai. However, these claims are yet to be verified by reliable sources.

The big question that lingers in the minds of many is whether Davido will bow to the pressure and issue an apology. As of now, the singer has remained silent on the matter, leaving fans and critics alike curious about his next move.
As events unfold, Toktok9ja will continue to closely monitor the situation and provide updates on the matter. The controversy has not only shaken Davido’s reputation but also sparked wider conversations about respecting religious sentiments and cultural sensibilities in Nigeria’s diverse society.
