In a thought-provoking TikTok Update, a Nigerian man, identified as @official_gegeh, has shared his perspective on the significance of singer Davido winning a Grammy compared to the Super Eagles clinching the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON)....CONTINUE READING
Emphasizing his viewpoint, @official_gegeh asserted that Davido securing a Grammy would stand as a more substantial triumph for Africa as a whole, while an AFCON victory for the Super Eagles would primarily benefit Nigeria.
The man delved into his reasoning, pointing out that opportunities for Nigeria to secure victory in AFCON could arise again, providing future chances. However, he highlighted the unique nature of Grammy nominations, suggesting that if Davido were to miss out on winning this time, the likelihood of being nominated again might be comparatively low.
In his words, “Davido winning the Grammy is a better and greater win for Africans and Nigerians than the Super Eagles winning the Africa Cup of Nations.”
He continued, “This is because if Davido wins, it is for Africans, while Super Eagles winning is for Nigerians. If Nigeria doesn’t win this AFCON, there will be other opportunities, but if Davido loses this Grammy, his chances are very slim. If he wins, he will put a smile on people’s faces.”
