The Feel hitmaker noted that that the economy is in shambles and Americans should not bother to relocate to the country or even invest in it. Moreover, the rate at which the dollar has fallen against the dollar was appalling.
On her part, Nyma said Davido was hindering President Bola Tinubu’s effort to get foreign investors into the country with his interview. She added that the removal of fuel subsidy was the best decision made by the current administration.
According to the Television Continental (TVC) journalist, Davido should show his contribution to his home state Osun. She also asked him to show the food production company he built to support the government.

“I am just wondering how we should hold an Artiste accountable and leave the government we elected.”
@anieubok:
“Imagine! What services do you render apart from sitting every morning in front of the TV to criticise people but not the owner of TVC. Madam shift, talk to your employer.”

“Direct the energy to your president.”
@tekena_otobo:

“Just out curiosity. The foreign companies that shut down operations in Nigeria in the last one year what do you think they told their people when they got home? Cause this one every boy is hyperventilating cause David spoke the truth is confusing me o.”
Reno slams Davido for ‘de-marketing’ Nigeria
Earlier, TheTalk.NG reported that a prominent opposition member, Reno Omokri, has strongly disagreed with Davido’s position that Nigeria’s economy is in shambles.
Omokri asserted that even if, for the sake of argument, the country’s economy is in shambles, Davido “should not have gone on a global platform to say so and then tell the world not to invest in Nigeria”.
The outspoken social media personality counselled citizens to rise above partisanship and love Nigeria enough to defend her.
