Tiwa Savage, the renowned Nigerian singer, recently lodged a petition against Davido, another prominent Afrobeats star, citing alleged threats to her life.
In a document addressed to the Lagos State Commissioner of Police and circulating online, Savage detailed an incident where Davido reportedly sent her unsettling messages after she posted about her relationship with Sophia Momodu, Davido’s ex-partner and the mother of his child.
Savage expressed concern about the perceived threats and the subsequent involvement of mutual acquaintances.
She highlighted feeling harassed both online and offline, asserting that Davido’s actions infringed upon her rights to privacy and dignity.
The petition stressed her fear for her safety and the safety of her family, emphasizing the need for accountability if any harm came to them.
A spokesperson from the Lagos Police Command confirmed the authenticity of Savage’s petition.
The incident came to light amid social media buzz when both Davido and Tiwa Savage unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Despite their previous amicable relationship, speculations emerged about potential reasons for their fallout, with some attributing it to Savage’s growing friendship with Sophia Momodu, creating rifts between the artists.
