In an online petition submitted to Fayoade Adegoke, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Tiwa Savage claimed that the crooner of "Omo Baba Olowo" had threatened her during a social media exchange.
Tiwa Savage said that Davido had urged their common contacts to alert her, and she asked the police chief to hold him accountable if something unfortunate occurred to her.
According to Tiwa Savage, there might be a connection between the miscommunication and her relationship with Davido's baby mom, Sophia Momodu, with whom he was having problems.
The petition said, "I am writing to bring to your attention a disturbing issue involving Mr. David Adeleke, also known as Davido, and myself, Tiwatope Omolara Savage, also known as Tiwa Savage.
“On the 23rd of December, I made a post which included myself and Sophía Momodu on my Instagram Story- a feature on Instagram which allows you to put up a post for twenty-four hours, and Mr David Adeleke sent messages to my manager who’s also part of his management team that I shouldn’t worry and should never say a word to him and that I was taunting him, uttering very disrespectful, malicious and derogatory words to my person.
“I responded to MR. DAVID ADELEKE’S message and told him not to reach out to me especially as I felt like I had been there for him and his daughter, Imade, and more importantly when he lost his son.
“The events of that day have also led to a barrage of calls and messages from our mutual connections, asking me what 1 did to Mr David Adeleke and that he’s upset that I chose to maintain a relationship with Imade’s mother, Sophia Momodu who he’s having issues with and also painting the exchange to look like I was the aggressor. He has also told our mutual connections to warn me to “be careful in Lagos because he was going to f”k me up”.
“This is beginning to feel like some form of online and offline harassment not just to me but also members of my team.
“The action of Mr David Adeleke is unethical and can be viewed as a direct threat to my rights to life, privacy and dignity of my person as guaranteed in Chapter 4 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), and are also in contravention of Section 2424) of the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, Etc.) Act, 2015.
“I therefore would like to make this complaint and state that in the event that anything untoward or harmful were to happen to me or any member of my family, I would like the members of the Nigerian Police Force to hold Mr David Adeleke responsible.”
Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesman for the Lagos Police Command, did not return calls to his cell phone when asked to verify the authenticity of the petition.
Additionally, as of the time this report was filed, he had not responded to a text message that had been sent to him.
The PUNCH claims that on Saturday, January 6, 2024, there was a stir on social media as well-known afrobeats musicians David Adeleke (Davido) and Tiwa Savage unfollowed one another on Instagram.
