When another fan, @RealDreylo, criticized his response, Burna Boy asked if Davido’s marriage was a better example. A third fan, @sunofoba, then asked if Adekunle Gold’s marriage was a better example, to which Burna Boy responded, “Ehen! Na wetin we dey pray for be that bros.”

This conversation comes amid news of Davido’s ongoing custody battle with his daughter’s mother, Sophia Momodu, who has claimed that their daughter would suffer trauma if she stays in David’s custody.
