Davido has said that he didn’t ask people to donate money to him for his birthday, but to give him money as a joke and was surprised at the massive response.
The music icon said this while being hosted by CNN Zain Asher to discuss the generous donations for his birthday, and his decision to dole out the money to charity.
Davido said; “I never said donate money to me, I said if you’re my friend give me money”.
He added that he was just addressing his friends and the people he has featured in their songs.
He added that he didn’t expect as much money as he got, it was all a joke but people came through, including ordinary Nigerians who were sending what they could afford.
