Was Davido Arrested In Kenya?

News made the rounds on April 1, 2024, that Afrobeats superstar Davido was arrested in Kenya, but the singer, in an Instagram post, has debunked the rumours and vowed to prosecute platforms responsible.

Reports out of Kenya on April 1, 2024, said the “Unavailable” crooner was arrested and detained alongside seven of his crew members after narcotics were found in the private jet that flew them into the East African country.

Davido, in a post, described the reports as false and disclosed that he flew to Uganda and Kenya to perform and has since returned to Nigeria.

“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,” the singer said in a social media post.

“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 returned home to Nigeria.”

The multi-award-winning singer also noted 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.”

It remains to be seen what line of action the “Fem” singer intends to take.
