Nigerians React To Davido’s 02 Arena Concert

A storm of reactions by Nigerians has greeted Davido‘s concert at the 02 Arena in London, United Kingdom.

Naija News reports that the show tagged ‘Davido Live at The O2’ is hosted by Shopsydoo and was already sold out before it commenced.

Davido‘s concert at the 02 Arena which is coming after Wizkid sold out the same venue in June 2018, started with sets from various DJs including Tim Westwood, DJ Ecool, DJ Bibi, and DJ So Good.

After the display from the DJs, came performances from members of his DMW crew including Mayorkun, Peruzzi, Idowest, Dremo, Yonda and Zlatan.

This online news medium reports that Victor AD, who just released a new song titled “Tire You” and featuring Davido, also performed.

After a brief delay, Idris Elba, an English actor, producer, musician and DJ, who was a special guest at the show, took to stage to introduce Davido, who came in and kicked off the night with one of his hit songs, “Aye”.

Naija News recalls that Davido had taken to Instagram to hype the show a fortnight ago, writing: “For me, it’s about always elevating the movement with every step taken! January 27th will be historic! Queen Elizabeth herself go know say we dey town! Don’t hear about it be a part of greatness! #DavidoLiveat02.”

While some Nigerians praised Davido for the concert, others countered him, saying the show was not sold out as claimed by him.

"Ticket not available" doesn't mean it was sold out, once u buy ur ticket that particular sit u paid for will be written sold out at the slot. London stops selling tickets a day to ur show that's why the empty spots where written sold-out . #Davido davido

Yunno as a wizkid fan I’m not bothered I’m happy for David wizkid paved the way for him to see this was possible so we be pace setters and I know wizkid would do something very mad to shut everybody up na smalls lmao let’s enjoy the show ladies and gentlemen #davido

Davido sells out the @TheO2
20,000 people have come out this evening to watch him sing.
It’s Sunday. Tomorrow is work and school day.

6 years ago Davido was playing to a 600 crowd in London.

Let that sink in.#DavidoliveatTheo2 #davido

#Davido Unpopular opinion: Davido might just be a very insecure artiste.

Nigerians with our sense of reason Sha… must a show be wizkid live in concert, Davido live in concert or olamide live in concert before we know they headline or own the show…so because someone decided to name his show afroRepublick now means isn't pic.twitter.com/TWuTzmUVlp
