“Don’t Relocate to Africa, the Economy Is in Shambles – Davido”
Afrobeats superstar Davido, whose real name is David Adeleke, has advised African-Americans against relocating to Africa in response to Donald Trump’s re-election as President of the United States.
Speaking on the Big Homies House podcast, Davido addressed the growing trend of African-Americans expressing a desire to leave the U.S. following Trump’s political victory.
While acknowledging the appeal of Africa’s rich culture and growing global influence, he cautioned that the realities on the continent might not align with their expectations.
“It’s not cool back home. The economy now is in shambles,” Davido remarked, shedding light on the struggles faced by many African nations.
He pointed out how economic instability, widespread poverty, and limited opportunities make life challenging for millions of people across the continent.
The Nigerian artist, known for using his music to showcase African culture, emphasized that his comments were not intended to discourage interest in Africa.
Instead, he wanted to paint a realistic picture of the current situation.
Davido stressed that entertainment is one of the few sectors making Africa appear more appealing on the global stage.
He explained that music, film, and other creative industries have become a smokescreen, often masking the economic and social challenges facing the continent.
“Entertainment is what’s giving Africa a smokescreen to make it look good,” he noted, noticing the stark contrast between the continent’s vibrant cultural output and its harsh economic realities.
Bruno Fernandes, captain of Manchester United, has explained why he turned down a contract offer from Saudi Arabia.
It can be recalled that the player was offered a £200 million contract from Saudi clubs.

He added that his wife has supported his journey since he was young.
Nigerian social media influencer and personality GehGeh has called out youths for not speaking up against security challenges in Nigeria.
He took to social media and compared the situation with South Africa, saying:
“See how South African people came out to carry out a mission and their government supported them quietly. You see their police force supporting them too.”
“But here in Nigeria, our police are looking for yahoo boys and private chef girls, and the youths are not even ready to stand up to take back their country from these evil politicians.”
Nigerian celebrity and daughter of billionaire Femi Otedola, Temi Otedola, has spoken about when she found out she was pregnant.
She reflected on life after their wedding celebrations in 2025 and shared that during their resting phase in 2026 and honeymoon, she discovered she was pregnant.
“After wrapping up three weddings in 2025 — a court wedding in Monaco, a traditional Nigerian wedding in Dubai, and a church wedding in Iceland — we wanted to end the year with a 2-month, digital-detoxed honeymoon, travelling across Korea and Japan. That’s when we found out!”
