Nigerian content creator Carter Efe has publicly expressed friction with Afrobeats singer Wizkid. In a TVC News interview, Efe explained his decision to support Davido over Wizkid, citing a past incident where he claimed Wizkid “poured spit on my face.” Efe described Davido as a “helper” who has provided financial support, while also making disparaging remarks regarding Wizkid’s official DJ, DJ Tunez.

Following these comments, Efe escalated the dispute by challenging Wizkid to a boxing match during an interview with Yanga FM. Efe stated he would fight for free but suggested organizers pay Wizkid $1 million to participate. He expressed frustration that Wizkid has not acknowledged his contribution to the singer’s success via Efe’s 2022 tribute song, ‘Machala’.
