Kokopee Breaks Silence on Involvement in Davido and VeryDarkMan Dispute
Singer Kokopee has addressed public criticism regarding his role in the ongoing conflict between activist VeryDarkMan and musician Davido, detailing the personal friction that led him to step away from the situation.
The public fallout between Nigerian music star Davido and social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) has drawn in various associates, with singer Kokopee recently stepping forward to clarify his position. Following online backlash from critics who questioned his silence and the validity of his claims regarding communication with the singer, Kokopee has provided an account of how he became an intermediary in the high-profile disagreement.
The Origins of the Involvement
According to Kokopee, his proximity to the dispute was not a result of the initial stages of the friendship between Davido and VDM. He stated that he was not present when the two first connected or when the singer initially invited the activist to Lagos. Instead, his involvement began only after tensions surfaced between the two parties.
Kokopee explained that VDM reached out to him to air grievances regarding actions allegedly taken by Davido. In an attempt to mediate, Kokopee suggested that the activist contact members of the singer’s inner circle, specifically Israel or Ubi. Simultaneously, Kokopee noted that Davido reached out to him to discuss the unfolding situation from his perspective.
Internal Friction and Accusations
The role of a mediator proved difficult for Kokopee. He reported that when he attempted to explain the reasons behind VDM’s sense of betrayal to Davido, the singer did not agree with his assessment. This attempt to bridge the gap reportedly led to friction with VDM as well.
Kokopee revealed that VDM eventually questioned his motives, asking why he was so invested in the dispute. According to Kokopee, VDM specifically asked if he was acting out of a desire for personal gain, questioning, “if Davido promised me free collaboration.”
I’m only humble, not hungry.
Feeling caught between the two parties, Kokopee stated that he eventually withdrew from the matter to avoid being perceived as a traitor to VDM. He emphasized that while he continues to offer private advice to the activist regarding his approach to the situation, he maintains that he cannot force two adults to resolve their differences.
Addressing Public Skepticism
Kokopee also addressed the online criticism he faced from those who doubted that Davido had contacted him. He maintained that he has not disclosed the specific contents of his private conversations with the singer, asserting that his relationship with Davido is such that direct communication is plausible. Addressing his detractors, he stated, “I’m only humble, not hungry,” and challenged the notion that he is not of a status that would warrant communication from the artist.
Conclusion
The situation highlights the complexities of navigating public feuds involving high-profile figures. As of now, the dispute between Davido and VDM remains a subject of intense public interest, with associates like Kokopee attempting to distance themselves from the fallout. It remains unclear if any further reconciliation efforts will be made, as Kokopee has signaled his intention to remain on the sidelines.
