The barber first gained widespread attention last month following a highly publicized altercation with Davido. The dispute ignited when the barber, in a comment under one of Davido’s Instagram posts, cheekily referred to the singer as the “003” of the music industry, in contrast to Davido’s self-proclaimed moniker as “001.”
Davido, known for his outspoken nature, swiftly responded to the jab, expressing his disappointment and suggesting that the barber had missed out on potential opportunities to collaborate with him, including the chance to cut his hair or even open a salon.

Undeterred by Davido’s rebuke, the barber, a staunch supporter of Davido’s rival, Wizkid, remained steadfast in his stance, adamantly asserting that Davido held no sway over him and could offer him no meaningful assistance.
In the aftermath of their online spat, the barber experienced a surge in Instagram followers, with many fellow Wizkid fans pledging their support and promising to transform his life in recognition of his bold confrontation with Davido.
However, the promised windfall failed to materialize for the barber, who today took to Instagram to announce that he had observed a decline in his follower count, signaling a possible fallout from his confrontation with Davido.
The news of the barber’s diminishing followership has been met with palpable satisfaction from Davido’s fan base, who view it as a vindication of their idol’s influence and standing within the music industry.
