US-Based Lady Calls Davido Out for Impregnating Her
Nigerian singer, Davido Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has been called out for impregnating a United States businesswoman, Anita Brown, and has refused to acknowledge the pregnancy.
Anita, who first came to public knowledge on Sunday with claims of being in a relationship and pregnant with the singer’s child, resurfaced a few hours ago with receipts to prove her claims.
She has released multiple screenshots of chats between herself and Davido’s cousin, Clarks Adeleke, and the award-winning singer himself, slamming claims that she was in a one-night stand situation with the Afrobeats musician.
Anita, in her social media outburst, stated that she first met the singer in 2017 while in Dubai and that they dated on and off until the pandemic when she was in a ‘long’ relationship.
She released screenshots of chats between her and the ‘Assurance’ crooner, who not only affirmed having unprotected sex with her but also chats where he asked her to handle the pregnancy like other girls in the past have to help lighten his problems.
Her receipts also show conversations between her and Clarks, who promised to advise Davido on taking responsibility for the child upon its arrival.
Anita has followed up the receipts with a video of her conducting a pregnancy test.
Anita continued addressing trolls who have called her all sorts of unprintable names, saying she never knew that the singer is married, as nothing about him or his social media platforms implied this.
Recall, Davido tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Chioma Rowland, in January 2023. Their marriage came barely months after the loss of their son, Ifeanyi, who drowned in the family pool in their Banana Island home.
Social media users have since taken to different platforms to share their thoughts on this latest development.
One Gracie wrote; ”Davido’s marriage to Chioma is a consolation for her Child lost. Forget all those things he says during interviews, a man who loves you would never put you through this level of pain, shame and humiliation. I don’t feel sorry for Chioma, She had a choice but chose to stay!”
Another person wrote; ”At this point, Davido needs deliverance! Can’t he keep his d*** in his pants for once? A chronic womaniser! Lmao it’s how he always gets them pregnant for me😂😂😂 you know your sperm dey always catch yet you dey pours am everywhere you enter! Ah!
“Sadly, it’s difficult for women to leave a rich guy so Chioma won’t leave him. She’ll remain there and eat all the shit! 🤮 Trust me, if Davido were poor, Chioma would have been long gone and she would never come back.
Anyway, I wish them all the best. All of them go dey alright. It is well!.”
One Stlucian Princess commented saying; ”The crazy thing is he doesn’t take care of his children as he should.. so why would you want a child with him? Just to say you have a child with Davido? Gotta do better man. The children are the ones suffering.”
Renowned Nigerian musician and live-band leader, Akinloye Tofowomo, popularly known as Akin Shuga, is dead.
The celebrated performer and founder of Shuga Band died on October 30, 2025, in New Brunswick, Canada, at the age of 50.
His family, in a statement on Monday, described him as a “revered music icon, grandmaster, and custodian of rhythm, culture, and the spirit of performance.”
The statement added, “Akinloye Tofowomo was more than a musician; he was a custodian of rhythm, culture, and the spirit of performance.
“Across more than three decades of excellence — on stage and in mentorship — he redefined what it meant to lead a band with grace, mastery, and purpose. To countless admirers at home and abroad, he was both an inspiration and an institution: a true king in his art.
“As the family comes to terms with this immeasurable loss, we humbly request privacy and quiet reflection at this deeply difficult time. We wish for the space to find closure and to honour his life in the intimacy of loved ones and cherished memories.
“Further details, including dates and arrangements for memorial observances, will be communicated in due course.
“We extend heartfelt appreciation to all who have reached out with prayers, tributes, and kind words. Akinloye Tofowomo’s legacy, through the Shuga Band and Shuga Entertainment, will continue to live on.”
Born on January 6, 1975, in Ile-Oluji, Ondo State, Akiin Shuga’s life was defined by resilience, passion, and purpose.
Stricken by polio at the age of five, he defied physical challenges to become one of Nigeria’s most accomplished live-band performers and music entrepreneurs. His story mirrored Nigeria’s own revival of live music as an essential part of its cultural identity.
In 1998, he founded the Shuga Band, which began performing at Pintos in Ikeja, Lagos. Over the years, the band grew into a 14-member ensemble known for its electrifying performances at weddings, corporate events, and state functions.
His company, Shuga Entertainment, became a model for professionalism and excellence in live performance, combining artistry with discipline.
Akiin Shuga also served as the founder and president of the Association of Music Band Owners of Nigeria, where he worked to elevate standards within the live-music industry and promote fair treatment for musicians.
Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy, has unveiled his list of favorite Afrobeats songs and albums, spotlighting the classics that propelled the genre from local streets to international acclaim.
In a RollingStone Africa interview, the producer paid homage to the Mo’ Hits era he co-built with D’Banj, while crediting pioneers who shaped the sound.
His top songs include 2Baba’s African Queen, which he said opened global doors for Afrobeats and Wizkid’s Ojuelegba for its authentic storytelling.
D’Banj’s Fall in Love earned praise as a continental anthem from Mo’ Hits, while 9ice’s Gongo Aso was lauded for blending Yoruba tradition with pop.
Davido’s Aye rounded out the list for its Highlife-infused energy.
For albums, Don Jazzy singled out Wande Coal’s Mushin 2 Mo’Hits, which he produced as a timeless masterpiece.
He also named 2Baba’s Grass 2 Grace, Wizkid’s Superstar, D’Banj’s The Entertainer, and Aṣa’s self-titled debut as foundational works that influenced today’s stars.
The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has condemned an alleged order by a Magistrate Court in Kano State reportedly directing two social media content creators, Idris Mai Wushirya and Basira Yar Guda, to marry each other within 60 days.
The court directive reportedly followed a case against the duo over the circulation of a video deemed “indecent” by state authorities.
The content, which went viral on TikTok and other platforms, featured affectionate scenes between the two influencers.
The Kano State Films and Video Censorship Board claimed the video violated public morality and religious codes governing conduct in the state.
Magistrate Halima Wali reportedly handed down the marriage directive on Monday after arraigning the pair on charges relating to the production and distribution of obscene content online.
Reacting to the development, NBA President Afam Osigwe described the court order as a “grave misunderstanding of the limits of judicial authority under the Nigerian Constitution and constitutes an affront to the fundamental rights of the individuals concerned.”
Osigwe noted that no court has the power to compel any person to marry another person or two persons to mandatorily marry, adding: “It is indeed unconstitutional and therefore unlawful for any court to purport to have power to make such an order.”
He added that such an order would constitute a violation of several fundamental rights guaranteed under the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended).
“Marriage, by its very nature, is a voluntary union between consenting adults. It cannot, under any circumstance, be imposed as a form of punishment, moral correction, or judicial remedy.
“No court in Nigeria possesses the constitutional authority to compel two persons to marry, and any attempt to do so violates the rights to personal liberty, dignity of the human person, and privacy as guaranteed under the 1999 Constitution (as amended).”
The alleged order, according to the NBA president, is an example of judicial overreach that not only infringes on personal freedoms but also could undermine public trust in the legal system.
“The courts must remain the bastion of justice and protectors of constitutional rights, not instruments for enforcing social conformity or moral compulsion,” Osigwe added.
The NBA then called for an immediate review of this decision by Magistrate Halima Wali and urged the relevant judicial authorities to take steps to prevent a recurrence of such unconstitutional orders.
It also directed the NBA Citizens’ Liberties Committee and Women’s Forum to monitor the situation to ensure that the rule of law prevails.
