Nigerian music star Teni Apata has created quite the buzz online after making a hilarious video request to fellow artist Davido, asking to borrow his luxurious Lamborghini for an upcoming music video.
The Hilarious Request That Started It All
In a creatively funny video that surfaced online on November 29, 2025, Teni dressed up to mimic Davido's signature style while making her special request. The entertainer didn't just stop at the outfit - she went the extra mile by creating a detailed cardboard replica of Davido's actual Lamborghini, which she proudly displayed in her video.
Teni explained that she needed the luxury vehicle to shoot her new music video, showing both creativity and humor in her approach to asking for the expensive favor from one of Nigeria's biggest music stars.
Davido's Generous Response
David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, didn't hesitate to respond to Teni's unique request. The Fall crooner, who recently reunited with his first daughter, immediately agreed to arrange the car for her music video project.
Davido provided clear instructions, telling Teni to contact his team member Lati to coordinate getting the Lamborghini for her video shoot. This gesture showcased the supportive nature within the Nigerian music industry where established artists help their colleagues.
Teni expressed deep gratitude for Davido's generosity, recalling how he had previously taken her to meet international superstar Chris Brown. She clarified that she wasn't asking for the car as a permanent gift but merely as a resource to complete her creative project. The singer humorously noted that the Lamborghini technically belonged to Davido's family - including his wife Chioma, daughter Imade, and other children.
Mixed Reactions from Fans Across Social Media
The exchange between the two artists sparked massive reactions from Nigerian music fans across various social media platforms. Many praised Davido for his kind-hearted nature and willingness to support fellow artists.
One fan commented: "Davido is such a sweet soul. You just need to love him." Another added: "What he knows how to do best. Big love."
However, the conversation took an interesting turn when fans began comparing Davido's response to how other top artists might have reacted. Several social media users dragged Burna Boy into the discussion, with one user joking: "If nah Burna boy em for don beat Teni now now."
Fans also mentioned Wizkid, suggesting he would never entertain such a request from a colleague. This comparison sparked debates about the different personalities among Nigeria's biggest music exports.
Not all reactions were positive though. Some critics accused Davido of chasing clout by making the conversation public rather than handling it privately through direct messages. They questioned why he needed to share the exchange online instead of simply arranging the car loan privately.
The incident highlights the ongoing camaraderie and occasional tensions within Nigeria's vibrant music industry, where collaborations and support between artists often become public spectacles that fans eagerly dissect.
Teni continues to make waves in the entertainment scene, recently performing at fashion designer Veekee James' first wedding anniversary celebration, where she thrilled guests with her performance of the song Money.
