Davido And Wizkid Relationship Isn't Different From That Of Ronaldo And Messi

Entertainment Lawyer, Bobo Ajudua, has opined that the relationship between Nigeria's top pop stars, David Adeleke aka Davido, and Ibrahim Balogun known also as Wizkid, is not in any way different from what exists between Portuguese star, Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentina captain, Lionel Messi.

Fans often compare the two Nigerian artists, placing them side-by-side whilst arguing for or against to determine who is superior between the two entertainers who have ruled the Nigerian and African entertainment industry for over a decade and are now taking over the global stage.

The rivalry which is often propelled by fans and popularized by the media is similar to what has been happening between two football stars, Ronaldo and Messi, according to Davido's lawyer, Ajudua, who doubles as his co-manager.

Ajudua while speaking in an interview argued that Davido and Wizkid have healthy competition instead of rivalry because they operate in the same industry and that's exactly what is going on between Ronaldo and Messi.

Bobo Ajudua said, "What is happening between Davido and Wizkid is similar to what is happening with two great footballers— Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi."

The entertainment lawyer asserted that If you put both Davido and Wizkid in the same room, you will find them sharing jokes with each other. 

He also added that the relationship between these two entertainers is a healthy one which is always welcome and acceptable.

Speaking of the fans who trigger rivalry rather than healthy competition, Bobo appreciated the fans of both artists acknowledging that without them the two singers wouldn't have attained their present heights in their musical careers.

In Ajudua's words, "We must appreciate their teams because without them there is no way both parties will have come this far or attained the heights they are at today."

Bobo who revealed he's a childhood friend of Davido, even though he's older than the singer, confirms that contrary to many views, Davido and Wizkid often speak.

He said,  "The two of them [Davido and Wizkid] speak more often than people would ever realize."

Ajudua concluded by stating that if one considers the length of time the two artists have stayed at the top of the Nigerian entertainment industry if the other one was not there, whoever is at the top would have felt very lonely.
