Social media users believe that the figures for Davido’s song Funds are not believable and have urged Apple Music to look into it.
An influencer named @benny77g has suggested that the activity on the song’s charts seems odd, claiming that bots are being used to boost the numbers, a practice known as Farming in Nigeria.
Benny had tweeted:
“DEAR @APPLEMUSIC, YOU REALLY NEED TO INVESTIGATE THE STREAMS COMING FROM NIGERIA. THERE IS A LOT OF STREAMS FARMING CURRENTLY GOING ON! .”

After seeing his tweet, Mr Eazi replied, stating that Nigerians are ‘active music fans’.
In the singer’s words:
“There is nothing like streaming farming in Nigeria Please! No need for investigations we are a vibrant music consuming people hence the numbers you see! #BuyNigeria #MNGA.”
