Davido, the Afrobeats superstar and OBO (Omo Baba Olowo), unleashed a savage reminder of his family’s billionaire status on X (formerly Twitter) after a troll took aim at his uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke‘s controversial switch from PDP to the Accord Party.
The drama unfolded hours ago when the troll mocked the governor’s December 2, 2025, defection—calling it a “desperate move” ahead of the August 8, 2026, Osun governorship election. The jab escalated: “If Ademola loses in 2026, Davido go compose APC campaign song for 2027—family wey dey fall hand.”
Davido, never one to let shade slide, fired back with his signature swagger:
“Our family net worth will buy your whole generation 10 times over. Keep crying while we build empires. #OBO”
The clapback, timestamped around 3 PM WAT today, has exploded online—garnering over 15K likes, 5K reposts, and a flood of memes in under two hours. Fans are hailing it as peak Davido energy, with #DavidoNetWorth and #AdelekeEmpire trending in Nigeria’s top 10.
Quick Context: Ademola Adeleke’s Defection Bombshell
Governor Adeleke’s bolt from PDP to Accord Party—announced at Osun Government House with national leaders in attendance—has sent shockwaves through Nigerian politics. Citing “PDP national leadership turmoil,” the billionaire businessman-turned-governor (and Davido’s uncle) dragged along ward officials and eyes a 2026 re-election bid under the new banner.
Critics like the troll see it as electoral panic; supporters frame it as strategic realignment. Either way, Davido’s defense turned a family slight into a viral flex, spotlighting the Adeleke dynasty’s wealth: From Ademola’s Pacific Holdings empire to Davido’s 30BG label and global tours raking $20M+ annually.
Social Media Erupts: Memes, Money Talk, and “OBO Forever”

- Troll backlash: One user quipped, “Davido go buy X next, rename am AdelekeVerse.”
Davido’s unfiltered response? Classic him—turning beef into banter while reminding haters: Wealth + talent = untouchable. As Osun’s election looms, expect more family fireworks… and maybe that APC song after all?
