Davido has embarked on a fresh shopping spree, treating himself to a luxurious $500,000 Richard Mille wristwatch.

The Nigerian music superstar made the extravagant purchase shortly after arriving in Amsterdam, where he is set to headline a highly anticipated performance at the Ziggo Dome.

The new addition to Davido’s collection comes amid a storm of online criticism over his recent comments about Nigeria’s economy.

Despite the backlash, the singer appeared unbothered, choosing instead to focus on his music and lifestyle.

His latest acquisition has reignited conversations about his penchant for luxury and his ability to stay in the spotlight.

Videos shared on social media captured Davido flaunting the sleek timepiece, which boasts intricate craftsmanship and a reputation for being one of the most exclusive wristwatches in the world.

Fans and onlookers were quick to comment on the star’s ability to “live large,” even in the face of controversy.

Davido’s shopping spree coincided with his preparations for the Ziggo Dome show, where he is expected to deliver a stellar performance.

Known for his energetic stage presence and chart-topping hits, the Amsterdam concert is part of his ongoing tour to promote his latest album, Timeless.

This isn’t the first time Davido’s extravagant lifestyle has made headlines.

The artist, who is known for his love of high-end fashion, luxury cars, and private jets, has often been a subject of admiration and scrutiny.

His recent purchase of the Richard Mille wristwatch has only solidified his image as a global superstar with a taste for the finer things in life.

However, the timing of his splurge has raised eyebrows.

Critics have pointed out that Davido’s lavish spending comes just days after he faced backlash for his remarks on the state of Nigeria’s economy.

Many social media users found his comments insensitive, accusing the singer of being out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Nigerians.

In response to the criticism, Davido has largely remained silent, choosing instead to let his actions speak.

His recent posts have focused on his upcoming performances and personal achievements, steering clear of the heated debates surrounding his earlier statements.

While some fans have defended Davido, applauding his resilience and ability to rise above negativity, others have expressed disappointment, urging him to show more sensitivity.

One fan tweeted, “Davido is living his life, and I respect that. But as a public figure, he should be more mindful of his words.”

Another added, “Half a million dollars on a watch while people are struggling? Not the best look right now.”

Despite the mixed reactions, Davido’s star power remains undeniable.

His Amsterdam concert has generated massive buzz, with tickets reportedly selling out in record time.

The show is expected to be a highlight of his European tour, featuring hit tracks like Unavailable and Feel.
