Amaju Pinnick, the former president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has reportedly sued Nigerian musician, Davido for breach of contract.
Pinnick demanded a public apology from Davido on his social media accounts for four consecutive days, N2.3 billion in damages, and an additional N30 million to cover the cost of bringing the lawsuit.
The Ex-NFF Boss also sought an injunction to prevent Davido from performing at any show or event in Nigeria until he refunds the payment he received. The lawsuit was filed before a high court in Effurun, Delta State.
The lawsuit stemmed from an alleged breach of contract by Davido, who was scheduled to perform at the 19th edition of the “Warri Again Concert” in Delta on October 6, 2023.
According to the Football Administrator, Davido was paid $94,600 to perform at the event and another $18,000 for a chartered flight for the singer and his entourage for the concert but he failed to show up.
Pinnick had claimed that despite receiving payment and arrangements being made for his transportation, Davido failed to appear at the event.
Davido had also responded to the above claim when he begged for the forgiveness of his fans in the state.
