“Davido Disrespected the Igbos by Summoning Bright Chimezie to Pay Him Homage — He Owes Igbos an Apology,” Man Blasts in Viral Video
The internet is buzzing after a man’s passionate outcry in a viral video sparked widespread reactions: “Davido lacks respect to fly Bright Chimezie to come and pay homage to him. He owes Igbos an apology.”
This unexpected backlash stems from a recent viral moment where Nigerian music star Davido flew highlife legend Bright Chimezie to Lagos, reportedly to pay homage. While some fans saw it as a powerful link between generations of music, others found the gesture offensive — especially considering Bright Chimezie’s iconic status in Igbo cultural history.
The man in the video didn’t hold back, calling the act not only disrespectful but also a misrepresentation of honor and cultural hierarchy. According to him, Davido should have gone to Chimezie, not the other way around — especially since the latter paved the way musically and remains a respected cultural symbol in the East. He further stressed that this incident mirrors a growing disregard for Igbo legacy in Nigeria’s entertainment scene.
Many Nigerians are now debating: was Davido celebrating a legend or showing cultural arrogance? The divide is real, and this video has ignited conversations around honor, cultural pride, and generational ego.
