The well-known artist Victor AD has finally responded to the persistent rumours that he wrote Davido’s blockbuster song “Jowo.”
Recall that a few months ago, Victor AD alleged in a tweet that went viral on X (formerly Twitter) that Davido “stole” his hit song “Jowo” during a studio session.
The Warri-born artist made it clear that he did not write the song in a recent interview with Naija FM in Lagos. He said that his friendship with Davido was almost shattered by the rumours.
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?”
