Afrobeat singer Victor Eugenie Adere also known as Victor AD, has finally cleared the air over rumours that he wrote the song ‘Jowo’ for Davido.
The singer in an interview with Naija FM said the rumours were false. He said he chose not to address the rumours when it went viral because he is never a social media person.
Recall that a few months ago, there had been rumours circulating the media that Davido had in fact stolen the song from Victor AD when they were in a studio.
In the recent interview, Victor AD said he can never claim credit for what he didn’t do.
He 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?”
The duo are yet to follow themselves on Instagram. Some stated that they had unfollowed themselves during the scandal while others claimed the two were never friends on IG.
