TD Lagos, Nigeria — Nigerian music superstar Davido has weighed in on the buzz surrounding a viral video featuring Ozonna Soludo, son of Anambra State Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, dancing energetically to a controversial song that takes aim at prominent Nigerian politicians — including his own father.
The video, which Ozonna shared on his social media, shows the young man singing and dancing along to the track “Shame Unto You.”
The song criticises several high-profile figures, opening with lines directed at President Bola Tinubu and extending to others such as:
- Vice President Kashim Shettima,
- FCT Minister Nyesom Wike,
- Senate President Godswill Akpabio,
- Senator Orji Uzor Kalu,
- Governor Hope Uzodimma,
- Governor Peter Mbah, and,
- Anambra Governor Chukwuma Soludo himself.
What captured widespread attention was Ozonna’s reaction during the lyric mentioning his father.
He briefly rolled his eyes before continuing to dance and sing, “Shame unto you, all power belongs to Jesus.”
He captioned the post: “Eziokwu, all power belong to Jesus, biko,” blending youthful exuberance with a spiritual affirmation.
Davido, known for his active social media presence, could not resist reacting.
The “OBO” star reposted or commented on the clip with the words: “This One No Send O”, accompanied by laughing emojis, indicating amusement at the bold display.
The video has sparked a mix of reactions online — from laughter and memes to concern over the political undertones and family dynamics.
Many social media users expressed surprise that the governor’s son would participate in a trend criticising his father’s administration and allies amid ongoing national economic challenges.
Political observers note that the incident highlights the generational gap in perceptions of leadership and public expression in Nigeria.
While some praised Ozonna’s authenticity and refusal to be restrained by his family’s position, others wondered about the potential implications within the Soludo household.
Moral of the Story?
As one viral comment succinctly put it: “Somebody check on Soludo o. Last last, na Ozonna go give him papa high BP.”
Governor Soludo is yet to publicly comment on his son’s viral moment.
The episode has, however, added another layer to the ongoing public discourse on governance, youth expression, and the power of social media in Nigeria’s political landscape.
The original song continues to trend, with users across platforms creating their own versions and dance challenges.
Whether this remains a light-hearted family moment or fuels deeper political conversations remains to be seen.
