Superstar Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has once again become the centre of attention on social media following his humorous reaction to advice that he should skip the next Grammy Awards.

This marks the second time Davido has been edged out by Tyla, who previously won in 2024 with her hit song “Water,” beating Davido’s “Unavailable” from his Timeless album.
The latest buzz began when an Instagram user, justvehrixx, shared a viral post using a Nollywood meme featuring actor Kenneth Okonkwo.
The meme, showing Okonkwo aggressively answering a phone call with the line:
“Yes, who is this? What do you want from me? You heartless idiot, you can go to hell for all I care,” humorously suggested how Davido should react if invited to the next Grammys.
Fans quickly took to social media, sharing the meme and tagging Davido, who responded with laughter, showing he was not taking the advice seriously.
The post has since gone viral, sparking reactions from fans and celebrities alike.
