Nigerian singer and DMW Boss, Davido has declared his intention to get his now-popular catchphrase ‘e choke’ copyrighted.
According to the “Jowo” crooner, it is pertinent that he does this because the usage is getting out of hand.
Admittedly, the phrase has travelled beyond the shores of the country and just a few days ago, Canadian rapper, Drake, was caught on camera using the catchphrase after meeting Davido.
His tweet reads ;
Gotta get ‘e choke’ copyrighted it’s getting outta hand

It can be used to react to any situation; win, love, joy, betrayal, death,invention and lots.
E Choke has crossed border that people like Drake, Nicki and Brizzy now uses it.
