The former boss of the Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick, has publicly criticized the famous Afrobeat singer Davido for breaking his agreement with his organization. 

Pinnick expressed his disappointment during his event called ‘Warri Again,’ where he expected Davido to perform on Friday, October 6. 

He revealed that he paid Davido a significant amount of money, $94,600, and even hired a private jet for him and his team, costing $18,000. However, Davido and his team never arrived at the event, which greatly affected the quality of the show.

In his frustration, Pinnick also mentioned that he had replaced Davido with a rising rapper named Shallipopi.

Speaking in Pidgin, Pinnick said,

 “We paid Davido $94,600 on the 6th of April. We paid $18,000 for his plane. If im say him be big boy, we go tell am say we Big pass am.

“I’m not joking. So, why he was playing his games back and forth, we decided to hunt to find another artist, Shallipopi.
