Contrary to what D’banj said in a recent interview, Davido has declared that he never signed any record deal with the koko master.
Recall that D’banj had claimed in an interview with Spindle Magazine that he signed Davido with a Rolex watch back in 2014
According to him: “I remember in 2014 when I went back to Nigeria, some young boy who used to work for me brought an artiste to me and said he wanted me to sign the artiste. I remember we gave the artiste a Rolex as a signing-on fee. And to look at today that the boy I’m talking about is one of the biggest artistes out of this generation, which is Davido.”
His remark elicited pervasive reactions from fans of both singers on social media, compelling Davido to respond on Friday evening.
The Afro-pop singer acknowledged that D’banj indeed gave him his first Rolex wristwatch, but firmly denied penning a deal with the flamboyant pop star.
When a fan asked quizzed him for his side of the story on Twitter, Davido replied saying, “Yea he actually did give me any first Rolex but I never signed anything.He paved the way for me any day,” he said.
