4. Apology to fans:
_“To my fans that pulled up… sorry I missed it. We’re going to run it back again soon”_. He also congratulated Sheyman, the event organizer.
This was during wider fuel supply disruptions affecting aviation globally, with rising costs and shortages hitting flight schedules. Even Davido’s multi-million naira private jet couldn’t escape it.
_“The world really showed me pepper”_ as one headline put it😂.
