Popular Nigerian singer and songwriter, Tiwa Savage has filed a petition against Afrobeats star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, over an alleged threat to her life.

In a petition addressed to the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fayoade Adegoke, Tiwa Savage alleged Davido made a “direct threat to my rights to life, privacy and dignity of my person”.

She asked the police boss to hold Davido responsible if anything untoward happened to her.

The singer explained that the event may not be unconnected to her relationship with Sophia Momodu, Davido’s baby mama, whom Davido is reportedly not in good terms with.

The petition read, “I am writing to bring to your attention a distressing situation involving myself, Tiwatope Omolara Savage, popularly known as Tiwa Savage, and Mr David Adeleke popularly known as Davido.

“On the 23rd of December, I made a post which included myself and Sophía Momodu on my Instagram Story- a feature on Instagram which allows you to put up a post for twenty-four hours, and Mr David Adeleke sent messages to my manager who’s also part of his management team that I shouldn’t worry and should never say a word to him and that I was taunting him, uttering very disrespectful, malicious and derogatory words to my person.

“I responded to MR. DAVID ADELEKE’S message and told him not to reach out to me especially as I felt like I had been there for him and his daughter, Imade, and more importantly when he lost his son.

“The events of that day have also led to a barrage of calls and messages from our mutual connections, asking me what 1 did to Mr David Adeleke and that he’s upset that I chose to maintain a relationship with Imade’s mother, Sophia Momodu who he’s having issues with and also painting the exchange to look like I was the aggressor. He has also told our mutual connections to warn me to “be careful in Lagos because he was going to f”k me up”.
