Davido, Asake, Peller Dominate Social Media on Weekend of Controversy

The Nigerian entertainment industry has been rife with controversies, with celebrities Asake, Peller, and Davido dominating social media discussions.
One of the most talked-about incidents involves singer Asake, who has faced backlash after his father reportedly called for financial assistance, claiming neglect by his son.
Asake’s father, who is said to have suffered a stroke, appealed for help, sparking heated debates online. Some fans criticised Asake for allegedly abandoning his father, urging him to provide financial support, while others defended him, arguing that personal family matters should remain private.
Addressing the controversy, Asake shared a cryptic message on social media, singing in Yoruba: “You can’t please everyone, you can’t please the world. But whatever you do, do it for God.”
Meanwhile, popular TikToker Habeeb Hamzat, also known as Peller, faced criticism after referring to Afrobeats singer Runtown as an “upcoming artiste” during a live TikTok session. The remark sparked backlash, with fans questioning whether Peller was mocking Runtown or genuinely unaware of his career achievements.
The entertainment industry remains abuzz with drama, keeping fans engaged and social media lively.
