Former President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick has rebuked music star Davido for allegedly refusing to show up at the 19th edition of the Warri Again fest despite getting invited and paid an excess of $94,600 which is equivalently about 72 million naira.
Pinnick further revealed that the organisers also booked a private jet for $18,000 to bring Davido to perform at the event in Warri, Delta State.
“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.
