The music icon, known for his generous gestures, acknowledged the unexpected present with a post, stating, "I’ve never received gifts; I’ve always been the one to gift people."
However, this revelation didn't sit well with some fans, prompting a wave of responses on social media platforms. One user expressed disappointment, stating, "Same Davido that we all donated money for on his birthday is saying he never received gifts. Is this the motherf***in thanks we get?" This sentiment echoed the sentiments of others who contributed to Davido's birthday fund.
Amid the reactions, some fans came to Davido's defense, explaining that the artist's statement referred to spontaneous and unsolicited gifts. One supporter pointed out, "He made a video for people to send him money; that one no be gift na birthday request. Depay gave him a Rolex as a gift; he didn’t request it, he wasn’t aware about it. That’s what he meant."
