Nigerian music star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has shared a message about kindness and helping others, advising people to always keep records of their good deeds.

The singer shared the advice on social media, reflecting on how acts of kindness can sometimes have unexpected consequences.

According to Davido, helping others can either have a positive or negative impact on a person, making it important to keep evidence of the assistance they provide.

“In life, you never know where your kindness can take you. It can either take you up or down. That is why when you help people, always keep receipts. Don’t play with it,” he said.

Davido’s message suggests that while people should continue to extend kindness to others, they should also be cautious and keep proper records of their financial or other forms of assistance.

The singer did not provide further details about the specific experience that prompted the advice, leaving social media users to interpret the message in different ways.

His statement has drawn attention online, with some users agreeing that keeping records when helping people can prevent misunderstandings or disputes in the future.

Others, however, noted that acts of kindness should be done genuinely, while still acknowledging the importance of protecting oneself when providing significant assistance to others.

The singer’s advice has continued to generate conversations about kindness, trust and the need to maintain boundaries when helping people.
