The Feel hitmaker during the interview noted that the economy is in shambles and Americans should not bother to relocate to the country or even invest in it.

Moreover, the rate at which the dollar has fallen against the dollar was appalling. On her part, Nyma said Davido was hindering President Bola Tinubu's effort to get foreign investors into the country with his interview.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that a prominent opposition member, Reno Omokri, has strongly disagreed with Davido's position that Nigeria's economy is in shambles.

Omokri asserted that even if, for the sake of argument, the country's economy is in shambles, Davido "should not have gone on a global platform to say so and then tell the world not to invest in Nigeria".

The outspoken social media personality counselled citizens to rise above partisanship and love Nigeria enough to defend her.
