Big Brother Naija former contestant and reality television star Natacha Anita Akide better known as Tacha has shared a reaction following a recent controversial action by the Afropop singer Davido on Twitter.
Davido had liked a post, shading Tacha over her past tattoo. Recall that five years ago, Tacha had a tattoo of Davido in between her cleavage.
Tacha earlier stood in support of her colleague Phyna after Davido claimed in a post that he didn’t know her, following a contentious post by a Twitter user who noted that anyone who supports celebrities like Phyna as a fan is useless.
The post Davido liked had read; “There some particular celebrities you’d Stan & I will profile, judge & conclude you are u$eless cos wydm you are stanning phyna????”
Phyna reacted, “Wetin I do @davido 😩
Na wah oh,
The hate is real…..,
Congratulations on your twins sha✌️”
Davido responded; “Thank you love ❤️ but I don’t know who you are .. and it was an honest mistake .. no vex.”
@Symply_Tacha added; “I know you Phyna. We plenty wey know you.”
A Twitter user @royzkingin shades Tacha saying; “Tweeting this with a Davido tattoo between your breasts is funny to me ngl.”
Davido liked the above tweet, as he noted; “The irony.”
Taking to her social media platforms, Tacha posted a video reacting to Davido’s action as she condemned it.
Tacha said in the video, “I just got back from the gym and I’ve been following up with what’s happening on Twitter. For those of you who know me, you know how much I love and support David. I put up his shows on my stories, I even sent him DMs a couple of months ago begging him to come on the big Friday show. That shows that it’s all love from my end.
“Now let’s take this to the genesis before this whole brouhaha. An honest mistake was made. And I understand how messed up Twitter is right now, they bring lots of nonsense to your timeline, and what you’re not interested in seeing, people you follow or don’t follow. I understand how messed up Twitter is.
“But you made an honest mistake. You don’t make an honest mistake, apologize, and still try to bring that person down. If you’re apologizing, do it. You don’t have to set someone up for more drags.
“Considering you’re a celebrity, you understand what goes on, you know how online bullying is, people attack people unprovoked.
“It was still this same social media, AY made a joke. And honest jokes that some people find funny and some people don’t find funny. But he came out and he apologized, for how big AY is.
“But you (Davido) say it’s an honest mistake, and then tag it with, ‘I don’t know you’. How does that sound to you?
“And at the end of the day, I tweeted and said, Phyna, I know you, and we are many that know you. This is me supporting a fellow friend, this is me supporting a fellow woman. And at the end of the day, you start liking shady tweets about me. I want to understand how supporting a fellow human being is me shading you because I was not directly or indirectly trying to shade anybody. I was just trying to uplift this woman up.
“For anybody that cares to listen, for anything that I’ve done, five years ago, from four years ago, from six years ago, if those years were to replay back, I’ll do all of those things with no regret, cuz everything I did in the past is the reason why I am the person I am today. It’s the reason why Tacha is the person she is today.
“It’s funny how anybody will think they can troll me, like, you’ll troll me with pictures I posted, you’ll troll me with videos I posted. That Tacha then is the reason you know Tacha of now.
“So, you’re trying to tell me now that some people are bigger than criticism? This is why some people are exempted from certain things, some people can’t be touched, because they are up there. I’m sorry, you’re not God.
“Don’t say anything, and then we’re in the country that we are in, and then we keep complaining forgetting that this society is a big reflection of ourselves, we make the society. Nobody is above criticism, not the president, not anybody.
“You David, you’re supposed to be the frontrunner against bullying because you know how it feels, people drag you for no reason.
“But at the end of the day, I thank God. He that is in heaven is not a man. I don’t beg for deals, I don’t beg people to feed, I’m not in nobody’s bed. I am who I am and that’s not going to change, I’m contended with what I have. I am good. This world is already hard enough. The world is already cruel enough. The country is already hard.
“So, any given opportunity you have to spread love, show kindness, irrespective of whoever it is, whether it’s Phyna, whether it’s anybody, whether it’s Tacha, let’s try and spread love. Let’s not be hypocritics. Let’s not spread love selectively. Let’s not share kindness selectively. At the end of the day, it’s all love and light, it’s all good, with me.”
