The entertainment space is buzzing after Nigerian media personality Tunde Ednut appeared to throw shade at Wizkid while reacting to Davido’s family’s acquisition of a third private jet. The subtle jab has reignited the endless online rivalry between fans of the two Afrobeats heavyweights.
Davido had earlier celebrated his father’s latest purchase of a luxury private jet, sharing the news proudly on social media. Tunde Ednut, known for amplifying celebrity culture, congratulated the DMW boss in a post that quickly attracted fan interactions.
When one follower, identified as @jeremyahi, asked Tunde when he planned to buy his own jet, the former musician-turned-blogger gave a response that set the internet on fire: “After Wizkid by God’s grace.” The comment instantly drew attention, with many interpreting it as an unnecessary dig at the Grammy-winning star.
Reactions poured in across X (Twitter) and Instagram, with some fans accusing Tunde of deliberately trying to stir tension. @PaulTochuk81983 quipped, “The Ojuelegba boy collects stray bullet,” while @CrewzWinski slammed Ednut, saying, “Tunde wey no get sense. Na their cars dem suppose compare. Which one be Davido papa jet to Wiz?”
Others questioned the relevance of the shade, pointing out that Davido himself has often clarified that the jets belong to his billionaire father. @amandalise81211 argued, “Why you dey mumu say Davido get when we all know say na him papa own he dey always rock?” Another fan, @AkanniiEkun, downplayed the noise: “All I know be say David no get any jet, bro. Una go just dey make noise online.”
Supporters of Tunde defended his comment as harmless banter, but critics maintained that his words were calculated to provoke Wizkid FC. The Afrobeats superstar, who has often maintained silence in the face of social media shade, has yet to react to the jab.
For many observers, the incident highlights the intensity of Nigeria’s celebrity fan wars — where even offhand comments can spiral into trending debates. Whether playful banter or subtle rivalry, Tunde Ednut’s remark has once again pitted 30BG against Wizkid FC, proving that in Nigerian entertainment, even private jets can become battlegrounds for bragging rights.
