Nigerian entertainer and social media influencer, Tunde Ednut, has stirred conversations online after making a subtle remark about Afrobeats superstar Wizkid. This came shortly after Wizkid’s long-time rival, Davido, announced that his family had acquired their third private jet, a move that immediately got fans buzzing across social media platforms. Tunde Ednut’s Reaction to Davido’s Private Jet Following Davido’s post, Tunde Ednut took to his Instagram page to celebrate the news. His congratulatory message drew several comments from fans, including one from a follower identified as @jeremyahi, who jokingly asked when Tunde himself would be getting a private jet. The fan commented:“When you go buy your own, Tunde?” In response, Ednut appeared to throw shade at Wizkid, replying:“After Wizkid by God’s grace.” Fans’ Reactions to Tunde Ednut’s Shade at Wizkid The statement didn’t sit well with many social media users, who accused Ednut of deliberately trying to provoke Wizkid’s fans, popularly known as Wizkid FC. Several reactions followed: Why This Caused a Stir1 This exchange once again highlights the long-standing rivalry between Davido and Wizkid’s fan bases. Both artists are global Afrobeats icons, but their supporters often clash online about achievements, wealth, and lifestyle. While Davido openly celebrates family acquisitions, Wizkid is known for his low-key lifestyle and rarely flaunts material possessions. Many believe Tunde Ednut’s comment was aimed at reigniting fan wars, considering how sensitive the topic of wealth and luxury is between both camps.
Veteran Nollywood actor Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, recently opened up about why he isn’t a fan of being referred to as a legend. In a thought-provoking interview on the Curiosity Made Me Ask podcast, the 63-year-old screen icon shared his personal views, stating that the term “legend” feels more like a trap than an honor. “I think the legend of a thing is a scam,” RMD said, clearly drawing the line between himself and those he truly considers worthy of the title. According to him, Nollywood greats such as Pete Edochie and Olu Jacobs are the real legends. He affectionately referred to them as “our ancestors” in the entertainment industry, having paved the way for generations of Nigerian actors. Why RMD Rejects the “Legend” Label RMD explained that while many people mean well when they call him a legend, the title often carries unintended undertones — hinting at retirement or stepping out of relevance. To him, it feels like being gently ushered into the hall of fame of “has-beens.” “When they call me that, I feel like they’re trying to relegate me to the neighborhood of retired people,” he said. He added that his admiration for Olu Jacobs dates back to childhood, recalling TV commercials like “Ribena children are healthy children” — a nostalgic nod to Jacobs’ longstanding presence on Nigerian screens. RMD’s Journey in Nollywood Born in Delta State, Nigeria, RMD launched his acting career back in 1982. Over the decades, he’s grown into one of the most beloved figures in the Nigerian entertainment industry, known for his charm, versatility, and elegance on and off-screen. Despite his tremendous impact, RMD continues to evolve and stay active in Nollywood, which may explain why he shies away from the “legend” label — he’s still writing his story.
