Idowest, one of Davido’s protege is taking some heat after calling the African superstar the ‘Jesus of our time’.
Davido turned a year older today and Idowest seems to have gone overboard with his birthday message to his boss.
Moments after wishing Davido a birthday message, Idowest overemphasized the singer’s philanthropic acts by calling him “the Jesus of our time.”
He wrote; “It’s King’s day!!! Life Changer, Jesus of Our Time!! Just wanna use this opportunity to say a big thank you for all you have done in my life !!! Will never repay your kindness. Happy Birthday Legend and God Bless You”
His statement, however, did not go down well with Nigerians on social media as they blasted him for comparing Davido to Jesus.
“Jesus died for everybody, Davido cannot even die for himself. Please stop this extreme comparison.” One Instagram user wrote.
Another said; “Idowest that comparison is very wrong, just correct yourself next time don’t let pride eat you up.”
“We all love Davido but calling him Jesus doesn’t make any sense at all he might only be your mentor but never will he be compared to what Jesus has done for you am not hitting at you bro just correct yourself that all bless up more life.”
Another Instagram user schooled the rapper; “Please don’t compareOBO with our creator. Jesus Christ is our Savior. Our creator, our provider, he gives life and takes life. We are not even worthy to worship his foot. Obo is just a man. May God forgive you because you don’t know what you just said right now. Don’t compare your maker with a man, he is a jealous God.”
