Davido Hurt By April Fool Arrest Prank

Popular Nigerian musician Davido has refuted rumors that he was taken into custody following his performance in Kenya.

Davido refuted the rumor in a statement posted on his official X account on Tuesday, saying that he has never been arrested and calling the rumors false.

According to THE MATRIX, he revealed that he had finished his tour in Kenya and Uganda and has already flown back to Nigeria.

The singer of the hit song “Unavailable” also said that he will take the media platform responsible for the bogus news to court.The statement by Davido read, “Fam, it has come to my attention that false reports regarding an arrest circulated online on April 1st, which has since led to a barrage of calls. I want to assure my fans that these reports are entirely untrue. I successfully completed my scheduled shows in Uganda and Kenya and have since re- turned home to Nigeria.

“I’d also like to note that I have never been arrested by anyone in any country for any crime in the world. Not my home Nigeria, my home America, or any of the hundreds of countries I’ve made home throughout my career.

“I find the fabrication of allegations of such international crimes extremely irresponsible, regardless of the light of ‘April Fools’, and my lawyer is seeking legal recourse against the media parties responsible for generating this misinformation.”

Earlier reports suggested that Davido was arrested after his show in Kenya last week.

The report, which was later passed as an ‘April Fool’ prank, suggested that Davido and his seven crew members were held at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) following a search on his private jet, where narcotic drugs were found.
