Davido first wrote in Pidgin:

“Since u Dey ground u never rest … PERSON WEY DECK U .. u leave am Dey face me wey no get business! [expletive] crazy 😂.”

Minutes later, the Grammy-nominated singer followed up with a more direct message addressed to the DJ:

“OGBAFIA AT 40 GET UR GET BACK [expletive]! LEAVE ME OUTTA OF IT [expletive].”

The posts quickly drew reactions from fans, many of whom immediately connected Davido's comments to the viral “Ogbafia dey for ground” phrase that emerged after the April 2026 nightclub incident involving Burna Boy and DJ Tunez.

The viral "Ogbafia dey for ground" backstory

Following a reported physical confrontation at Obi’s House in Lagos in April, Burna Boy posted a mocking video featuring DJ Tunez and Wizkid's song “Money Constant,” which also features DJ Maphorisa and Mavo.

The original song contains the line “Ogbafia dey my side,” but Burna Boy altered it to “Ogbafia dey for ground” while theatrically falling to the floor.

The moment quickly became a social media meme, with fans and other entertainers, including Carter Efe, adopting the phrase in videos and online jokes referencing the incident.

Davido's latest comments have now brought the nickname back into the spotlight, with social media users debating why the singer became involved in an issue that initially centred on Burna Boy and DJ Tunez.

Meanwhile, DJ Tunez's connection to Wizkid places the exchange within the broader and long-running rivalry narratives surrounding Davido, Wizkid and Burna Boy.

Davido has not provided additional context beyond his two posts, leaving fans to speculate about what prompted the latest exchange.
