Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has been warned against performing in Edo State for the remainder of Governor Monday Okpebholo’s administration following an ongoing public dispute between the singer and the governor.
The warning was issued by Apostle Kassy Chukwu, the Senior Special Assistant on Digital Media to Governor Okpebholo, in a video shared by Peniel TV International, Benin City, on Thursday.
Chukwu said Davido had been banned from coming to Edo State to perform, declaring, “You have been banned from coming to Edo State to perform. We don’t want to see you in Edo again.”
The governor’s aide also claimed that some Edo youths were angry over Davido’s comments about Okpebholo and warned that the singer could face an unfriendly reception if he returned to the state.
