More outrage as Davido congratulates Donald Trump | fab.ng

After the recent US presidential election, Nigerian-American star Davido congratulated Donald Trump on social media, sparking a wave of reactions from fans.

Following Donald J. Trump’s November 6, 2024 victory announcement, Davido took to X (formerly Twitter) to commend Kamala Harris for her campaign efforts.

His post, intended to celebrate Harris’s achievements, quickly drew attention—and frustration—from his followers, many of whom felt it was inappropriate in the wake of Trump’s win.

Despite Davido’s positive tone, the gesture added fuel to his ongoing trend of controversial remarks, leaving fans once again divided over his public stance.

He wrote,

“Congratulations 47th POTUS @realDonaldTrump but you !! @KamalaHarris SHOULD BE PROUD!! YOU DID THAT ! A SOLID WOMAN.”

Congratulations 🇺🇸 47th POTUS @realDonaldTrump ~ but you !! @KamalaHarris SHOULD BE PROUD!! YOU DID THAT ! A SOLID WOMAN 🇺🇸🇺🇸💪🏾

— Davido (@davido) November 6, 2024

Republican candidate Donald Trump won by a landslide against incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate, in the recent election. Harris garnered 67,957,895 votes, while Trump received 72,641,564 votes, ensuring his victory.

Following the election, Davido’s congratulatory post on X (formerly Twitter) sparked another wave of backlash from fans and other users.

Many criticized him for engaging in the US election rather than voting in Nigeria’s 2023 presidential election. The reaction was immediate and intense. Users were calling him out for what they viewed as misplaced priorities and highlighting his influence on global platforms.

An X user wrote, “But David, you didn’t vote during our own elections.”

But David you didn’t vote during our own elections…

“Lol hypocrite no go focus on your mid-sound,” said another angered X user, slamming the afrobeats artiste.

“Try Dey rest guy,” another comment read.

Another person appealed to the singer, saying, “Talk about Nigeria, bro.”

Trump’s victory ignited a wave of reactions across social media worldwide. Harris promptly called to congratulate him and concede the race.

Soon after, President Biden reached out as well, offering his congratulations and inviting Trump to the White House. This gesture formally initiated the transition process, setting the stage for the upcoming Inauguration Day.

Tonto Dikeh speaks against body shaming | fab.ng

Nigerian actress Tonto Dikeh has spoken out against body shaming on social media. On December 10, 2024, she shared a common saying on Instagram: “Before you body shame any woman, show us your mother.”

Tonto Dikeh used this statement to highlight the importance of respecting women’s bodies and avoiding harmful criticism of their appearance.

She wrote,

“This statement highlights the hypocrisy of men/women who body-shame women, especially those whose physical changes result from natural processes like childbirth. It calls for self-reflection and empathy, reminding them to consider the sacrifices and transformations women, including their own mothers, often go through in life.”

Dikeh’s post sparked numerous reactions from her followers, who shared their own experiences and perspectives on body shaming.

One follower commented, “Most times the body shaming comes from a fellow woman, and it’s so sad 😢😢😢😢.”

Even Nigerian celebrities aren’t immune to body shaming in the age of social media. Recently, veteran actress Kate Henshaw faced online criticism.

On September 17, 2024, she posted a fun video to X (formerly Twitter), showcasing her dance moves in the gym with a colleague.

The video was accompanied by a cheerful caption, “Energy never lies… No matter what, never lose your joy… Hold fast to it.. E get why.. Have a truly lovely day my authentic X family,” which was met with a range of responses from her followers.

A negative comment read, “Flat yansh. Aunty Kate, this your to match gym outfits ehnnn. Give me some now.”

One of Henshaw’s followers then slammed the X user, saying,

“What a stupid, backhanded comment to post. Real women lift each other up, not pass backhanded compliments. For the record, a backhanded compliment is a comment that blurs the line between insult and compliment. Apologise to Kate and moving forward, think before you post.”

Henshaw responded to her follower, saying, “She knew what she did… I don’t need her apology…Thanks Elyzabeth.”
