A dramatic scene played out at a shopping mall in Eti-Osa, Lagos, when a devoted fan of Afrobeats superstar Davido caused a stir by latching onto the singer’s leg and refusing to let go.
The incident occurred while Davido was out with his daughter, Imade, accompanied by friends and members of his security team. As they strolled through the mall, an excited admirer broke past the security barricade and suddenly grabbed hold of the singer’s leg.
Despite repeated efforts by security personnel to free Davido from the unexpected grip, the fan remained tightly clung to him, nearly pulling the artist off balance in the process.
Davido, founder of DMW (Davido Music Worldwide), remained composed and appeared more amused than alarmed by the excessive display of admiration, even as his team worked to manage the situation.
