Davido and Rarara Clash Over ‘Bring Them Home’ Jacket at World Cup Concert
Afrobeats star Davido faced criticism from Hausa singer Rarara after he wore a customised jacket listing over 40 abducted schoolchildren and teachers from Oyo State at the FIFA World Cup 2026 countdown concert in Los Angeles. Rarara called the move “barbaric,” warning it could tarnish Nigeria’s image abroad and suggesting Davido had political motives. Davido responded first by mocking Rarara on social media, then issued a statement in Hausa later translated into English. The singer urged Nigerians not to stay silent on insecurity, arguing that true patriotism demands speaking out regardless of political affiliations. He warned against putting personal or political interests above national welfare. The exchange has sparked a lively debate online about insecurity, patriotism and freedom of expression in Nigeria.
