In a move that has set social media ablaze, Nigerian music icon David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has once again demonstrated his larger-than-life generosity.
The Afrobeats superstar reportedly sent a staggering 10 million naira (approximately USD 6,200) to the girlfriend of rising rapper Odumodublvck, a gesture that has fans and industry insiders talking.
The revelation came during an unfiltered interview on The Beat 99.9 FM, where Odumodublvck, whose real name is Tochukwu Ojogwu, shared the surprising story with palpable excitement.
The news first broke on X, where Odumodublvck’s comments quickly gained traction. In a clip from the radio show, the rapper, known for his raw lyricism and energetic performances, expressed gratitude to Davido, stating, “Shoutout to Davido. He sent 10 million naira to my girlfriend for being a real one in my story.”
The statement, delivered with a mix of disbelief and admiration, has since been reposted and discussed across platforms, with fans praising Davido’s philanthropy and speculating about the context behind the gift.
Davido, a household name in African music and a cultural ambassador for Nigeria, is no stranger to making headlines with his generosity.
In 2021, he famously raised over 200 million Naira in a matter of hours after jokingly asking friends and fans to send him 1 million Naira each ahead of his birthday, later donating the entire sum, plus an additional 50 million Naira of his own, to orphanages across Nigeria.
His latest act of kindness, however, appears to be a more personal gesture, tied to his relationship with Odumodublvck, an artist signed to Native Records and gaining momentum in the Nigerian music scene.
While Odumodublvck did not disclose the full details of why Davido made the gift, he hinted that it was in recognition of his girlfriend’s support for his career.
In a follow-up post on X, a user quoting Odumodublvck suggested the money was a reward for her being “a real woman” to the rapper, sparking curiosity about the dynamics of their relationship and Davido’s involvement.
Some fans speculated that the gesture might be linked to a collaborative project or a personal milestone, given Davido’s history of supporting up-and-coming artists.
