Davido’s New Video Sparks Outrage: Muslims Demand Apology and Lawsuit

In a move that has sparked a wave of mixed reactions, Davido Music Worldwide (DMW) label head, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, and his protege Olamilekan Taiwo, aka Logos Olori, have found themselves at the center of a heated online debate following the release of the latter’s latest record, ‘Jaye Lo.’The uproar began when Davido shared a 45-second teaser of the music video on his Instagram account last Friday. The video features Logos Olori and depicts men dressed as praying mallams, dancing in front of a mosque, rather than engaging in prayer. This particular scene has drawn criticism from a number of Muslim devotees who find it deeply offensive.One of those expressing discontent is Ahmad Ganga, a Personal Assistant in the Federal House of Representatives, who took to Twitter to voice his concerns. Ganga accused Davido and his signee of portraying Muslims in a derogatory manner, suggesting that the mosque is being depicted as a dance club, which he deemed unacceptable.The controversy surrounding the video has spilled over onto social media, where a considerable number of tweets have lambasted the singer and even threatened legal action against him.One Twitter user, Muhammad, called for Davido to be sued, demanding the immediate deletion of the video and a public apology. Other users echoed similar sentiments, urging their fellow Muslims to disavow the artist and his work.On the other hand, some fans and allies of Davido have come to his defense, arguing that the video was shot outside the mosque and not within the sacred space, thus negating the claims of disrespect. They pointed to similar music videos filmed in predominantly Muslim countries without any backlash.Nevertheless, as of now, Davido has remained silent on the issue, leaving fans and critics alike to speculate on how this controversy will unfold.It is important to note that this situation has brought to light the complexities of navigating religious sensitivities in the entertainment industry. As the debate rages on, many are left wondering if Davido will issue an apology or if the matter will eventually escalate to legal proceedings.For now, the situation continues to attract attention from both supporters and detractors of the acclaimed music star. As the public awaits a response from Davido or his representatives, the discussion around artistic expression, religious respect, and cultural sensitivity remains at the forefront of the conversation.
