Hip hop singer, Davido, who was advertised to be among the artistes to perform at the Festival of India, which took in Lagos on Saturday, was conspicuously absent.
This did not go down well with some guests who obviously wanted to see him in action.
Indeed, such people think that the inclusion of his name was a fluke, to the extent that some have expressed the opinion online.
But PUNCH Newspaper spoke with the organisers who stressed that Davido was indeed invited.
The chief organiser, Rosiji, also confirmed this.
Although he said it was premature to say much on the development, other vital sources noted that the contract between the Festival of India and the artiste could run into N7m.
It was gathered that Davido informed them on Friday night, a day to the event, that he was indisposed.
It was further gathered on Thursday (yesterday) night that the organisers have accordingly communicated Davido’s lawyers, as they hope to get a refund of the fee said to have been paid.
A call to his manager’s phone number and a subsequent text message had not been replied as of 8pm production time on ThursdaY
