Erigga Claps Back at Davido Over Family Wealth Comments

On September 1, 2026, rapper Erigga, known as Papper Boi, posted a message on social media appreciating musicians who have worked hard without the advantage of family wealth. Although he did not mention names, Davido, who is known to come from a wealthy family, took offense.

On September 2, Davido responded directly to Erigga, arguing that recognition should also be given to those from wealthy backgrounds who have worked hard, dismissing Erigga's comments as "useless" and calling him an imbecile.
