Popular Nigerian artist, Davido has cautioned Black Americans against moving to Nigeria due to the nation’s economic difficulties.

The musician expressed his opinions about Nigeria’s problems during an appearance on The Big Homies House podcast, saying, “It is not cool back home.” The economy is in complete disarray.

Additionally, Davido brought up Nigeria’s problems with poor leadership, a high currency rate, and soaring oil prices, all of which are having a detrimental effect on the nation.

“It is not cool back home. The economy is in shambles. I do my part, I am an ambassador. When I go home and I am filming, I am no going to show the bad parts,” he said.

“I am talking about the situation in the country. Now the exchange rate is messed up, a lot of stuffs are not going well.

“The economy is just not good enough. The oil price is too high. Imagine the country that produces oil, paying more for it than a country importing oil.”

Despite the challenges, Davido emphasised the entertainment industry’s positive impact on Africa’s global image.

“Regardless, entertainment is one of the thing that has made Africa look good. We do not have the best leader, that is a fact,” he said.
