Singer Victor AD has broken his silence regarding the speculation that he wrote Davido’s hit song ‘Jowo.’
In an interview with Naija FM, Victor AD clarified that he did not write the song and explained that the rumors had nearly ruined his relationship with Davido.
Recall that a report went viral on the X app a few months ago, claiming Victor AD said Davido “stole” his hit song ‘Jowo’ from him during a studio session.
Debunking the rumour in an interview with Naija FM, Victor AD clarified that he didn’t write the song.
Victor AD said: “From nowhere, someone speculating that Victor AD wrote ‘Jowo.’ I’m not social media-savvy. Most times, before I notice happenings on social media, it would be two days after the matter has trended.
“my manager actually called my attention to the ‘jowo’ controversy on social media but i didn’t take it seriously. later on, i said let me just check the trend on social media. then a few hours later, i saw davido’s message. he was like, ‘whatsup na? wettin dey sup with this whole ‘jowo’ thing?’. and i said i didn’t know anything about it.
“I told him that based on the love and respect I have for him I can’t do something that will tarnish his image. I’m not even the type of person that will claim what I’m not. Why would I be seeking credit for what I didn’t do?”
Since the incident, Davido and Victor AD have unfollowed each other on social media, and their previously warm relationship has grown cold due to the rumors surrounding the song.
The two artists had collaborated on the track ‘Tire You’ before this controversy arose.
