Twitter users have taken Afrobeats artiste, Davido, to the cleaners over comments he made during his scheduled meeting with the Spokesperson of the NPF, Frank Mba.
Davido in the meeting said he didn't play an active role in the ongoing #EndSARS protest that rocked the nation. This claim goes contrary to trendy videos that show the artiste leading a group of protesters in Abuja on Saturday, October, 10.
According to him, he was in Abuja because of his fans.
Nigerians, especially fans of Davido have expressed dissatisfaction with his statement and have taken to Twitter to share their views.
Below are some of the reactions:
Davido why na? After saying if the meeting has to be a closed door you'll cancel it nd fly back to Lagos but see you sweating like a dishonest person while negotiating. Niggah denied protesters 3X & even added that he was there to calm his fans down. #SARSMUSTEND #SURULEREPROTEST

As Davido himself told the Police, he is not part of the protest or the movement.
