VIDEO: ‘Brothers, sisters arguing,’ Davido downplays rift with Tiwa Savage

Nigerian afrobeat singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has opened up about his relationship with fellow artist Tiwa Savage, addressing rumours of a rift between them.

Speaking on The BreakfastShow aired on Tuesday, Davido dismissed the notion of any lasting conflict, explaining that their differences were nothing more than a temporary disagreement.

He said, “That’s my sister, man. She’s cool. I remember when all of us, Me and Tiwa used to stay in the same house.

“That’s like my big sis, like, you know what I’m saying? She saw me as a youngin’, you know what I’m saying?.”

Speaking on the rift, the Grammy-nominated artist said, “The situation with Tiwa was like kind of personal, she’s very, very good friends with the mom of my daughter, my first daughter, which you know, we were in court, having custody and stuff like that.

“So I just felt like, help me, you know, see my daughter, that type of stuff. So we just got into a little argument. It was nothing, It was just like brothers and sisters arguing.”

Recall that in January 2024, Tiwa Savage lodged a police complaint against Davido, accusing him of making threats against her after she posted a photo of herself with the mother of the artist’s first daughter.
