Controversial social media critic VeryDarkMan has slammed Nigerian music stars Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid for purchasing multi-billion naira luxury cars amid the country’s ongoing economic crisis.
His comments followed Burna Boy’s recent acquisition of a N3.5 billion McLaren Sienna, making him the first African to own the new model. Shortly after, Davido reportedly bought a 2026 Mercedes Maybach SL 680 worth N1.2 billion, and a few months earlier, Wizkid was said to have purchased a car valued at N1.7 billion.
In a viral Instagram video, VeryDarkMan criticized the artists for lacking sensitivity toward the struggles of their fans and communities. Despite being close to Davido, he questioned the singer’s tangible impact on his hometown.
“Yesterday I saw the news that Burna Boy bought a N3.5 billionaire car. The same yesterday Davido bought a car of over 1billion Naira. They have been doing these.”
“The question I have for Burna Boy, Wizkid and Davido, don’t you people read the room? Una no really dey see country wey una come from? You guys are not the government but I just need to say this. Let me start with Davido because na you I know very well, Na you be my guy. What can you beat your chest to say you have done for the people of Osun State that you come from.”
“What is your contribution to the growth of Nigeria? Because you have benefited from Nigeria and you have benefited from your fans. What can your fans say they have benefited from you? The last time I saw your video from Osun was when your uncle was contesting for governor and you needed to help him secure votes. But after then what have you built that benefited the youths?”
