Several music lovers and followers of music star, Davido were amazed after the National Drug Laws Enforcement Agency announced the body is investigating the pop star following the depictions of hard drugs in his Sesan Ogunro directed video of ‘Fans Mi’ where he featured US rapper, Meek Mill.
The agency also revealed Davido might be invited over for questioning when necessary.
In expressing his shock on the recent developments, Davido who spoke through his manager, Kamal Ajiboye in an interview with Punch said he is yet to be contacted by the agency and is baffled to be under investigation.
Read excerpts from the interview below.
The NDLEA has not got in touch with us.
We heard about the news on the pages of newspapers. They have neither
called nor invited us over. People just pictured the video in a negative
way.
When we wrote the script for the video, it was not to portray
Davido as a drug trafficker. If they watch the video till the end, they
would notice that we were selling African lifestyle through our food.
That was our idea of the video. If you watch it to the end, you would
see him eating pounded yam and vegetable soup. When we learnt that
people thought Davido was using the video to encourage drug usage, we
were very shocked.
We hope that when people watch it to the end, they
would get the message. Davido is baffled that he is under investigation
by the NDLEA but what would he do when they have not made any contact
with us? We would keep doing our business as usual. Not even the police
have placed a call to us, not to talk of the NDLEA before people would
begin to say that we are using money to influence the situation. They
have to take a step first. As of Wednesday when Davido was travelling to
Durban, we were hoping that the NDLEA would accost us at the airport so
that we could sort this issue out, but there was nobody there.
