Nigerian music superstar Davido has responded to critics attempting to cancel his upcoming concert in Lagos, scheduled for December 24, 2024.
The controversy stems from Davido’s recent interview, where he stated that Nigeria’s economy is in “shambles.” While some fans appreciated his honesty, others labeled him unpatriotic.
He took to his X page to address the backlash, revealing that there are efforts to cancel his show. However, he remains unfazed, pointing out that he has a global fanbase and numerous international performance opportunities.
“I don’t have to perform in Nigeria,” Davido confidently stated. His response has sparked a mix of reactions from fans and followers.

@ostinpostop: “Davido didn’t lie …. If you cancel his tour for shinning the light then you are a problem,.. the economy is in shambles and they are hiding behind removal of subsidy to hide their Great inadequacies.”
@weinerplus: “Is there a Nigerian that hasn’t said what Davido said?. There’s literally no investor who will be deterred by Davido’s comments. Nigeria’s poor governance is LITERALLY common knowledge to the universe.. Anyways let them cancel the show. He’s still wealthy.”
