Nigerian social media personality, VeryDarkMan, has addressed popular beliefs that singer Davido contributed to his growth and NGO.
DAILY POST reports that VeryDarkMan became close to Davido in October 2023 after the singer invited him to Lagos State.
Applauding Davido for his royal treatment, VeryDarkMan said in a video, “Let me take you guys on a stroll. Make una see the room wey OBO booked for me. VeryDarkMan in Lagos. Don’t play.”
However, speaking after their fallout nearly three years after the link-up, VeryDarkMan made a U-turn on his earlier claim, stating that the long-standing public perception was for entertainment purposes.
While denying ever benefiting a dime from Davido, the influencer, who claimed that the singer did not sponsor his travel or cover his hotel accommodation in Lagos, also noted that he never donated to his NGO.
He said in Pidgin English: “Any time wey I talk something around Davido and maybe some people wey dey around Davido record, people go say, ‘After all what Davido has done for you. Davido flew you to Lagos, Davido has contributed to your NGO,’ and all those type of things.
“Well, today make I just address una. You see that time I went to Lagos to meet Davido, na me pay for my flight ticket oo, na me pay for the hotel wey I lodge, but guess what, we just leave am like that for entertainment purposes. They said Davido contributed to your NGO. That’s not true. I never asked him to make any contribution. He was the one who said he go do something, and I never asked him. Ask David if I’ve ever collected N1,000 from him before since he knows me,” he stated.
