In the alleged exchanges, the music star supposedly praised her name, asked where she was from, and told her she was beautiful. A separate screenshot she shared appeared to show her asking why she was being threatened with a lawsuit over the posts.
Davido denies the screenshots are real
The Afrobeats star did not stay quiet for long. He took to social media to challenge the authenticity of the images, sharing a screenshot from his own account to demonstrate what his actual messages pane looks like. He pointed out clear visual differences between the two and dismissed Lesthabo as someone seeking clout.

In his words:
“Its adults really believing that the screenshots are real. This is how the messages pane should look like. Check the differences. Thats just a teenager fishing for attention online, and yall falling for it.”
Here is the X post made by the singer about the allegations against him:

“David you’re a disgrace to we 30BGs. Can you just stop?? I regret supporting you fr.”

“leave South African women alone, you’re married to a good woman. She doesn’t deserve further embarrassment.”

“You’re in another scandal again few days after your uncle win an election. you cannot even wait for a month ehn.. guy dem swear for you? You don’t deserve chioma fr, na everytime you’re embarrassing the innocent girl. chaii.”
Davido addresses clash with Edo governor
Legit.ng had reported that the public clash between Afrobeats star Davido and the Edo State governor came into focus during the Osun State election campaign, with the singer defending his actions and pushing back against criticism of his involvement in the political contest.
Davido maintained that he had done nothing wrong, arguing that the governor had crossed state lines to interfere in the Osun election. The singer also took a swipe at the governor over the state of infrastructure in Edo, using the condition of the state to question the governor’s record and, pointedly, his standing to weigh in on affairs in Osun.
