Davido reveals why he performed for free at Alex Otti's inauguration

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke who is better known as Davido has revealed why he gave a free performance at Alex Otti's inauguration as governor of Abia State.

Recall that Davido entertained a crowded Umuahia hall with some of his great songs when Otti and his deputy, Ikechuckwu Emetu, were sworn in by Justice Lillian Abai, the Chief Judge of Abia State.

Davido's actions had led some of his fans to question why, as an A-list artist, he chose to perform for free for the Abians.

Many people had hypothesized that he had enough money for the performance before getting on stage.

Davido responded to the reports by revealing on Twitter that he has known the Abia governor all of his life and is confident in his ability to uphold the interests of his constituents.

He continued by saying that he received no payment for the performance.

He wrote: "Not a dime. I’ve known his excellency all my life an i am sure he will do well for the peopple of Abia state.”
