The reason, on the other hand, goes back a few days.
The music blogger, on Saturday, found it curious that views for Davido’s new music video “Wonder Woman” went up from 150,000 to a staggering 1 million.
He shared two tweets on his timeline, one of them: “1 million views already ? Lol yesterday it was 150k o hm.” And the other: “Ki Gbogbo yin ma Ra Views Lo , owo Yin kuku ni Lol” which translates to “You guys should continue buying views, it’s your money, anyway.”

Davido probably took the second tweet as a personal assault, an accusation that he bought views, making him issue the treat.
Although, Ayo first made light of the threat, writing on his Twitter: “Ah Whole of Africa , I can’t enter Ghana be that … Mad thing,” he later replied Davido’s tweet, letting him know screenshots of the threat have been taken and sent to a lawyer. He wrote:
My personal opinion is what triggers you , you could have blocked me or said it a better way . You insulted my parents and threatened my life . I have munched this and sent to my lawyers , and also we have the same passport so if anything happens to me ; it’s on you!
