“It was an entertainment effort gone wrong” Davido’s aide apologies to Muslim community
SHARE

Israel Afeare, popularly known as Isreal DMW, an aide to popular Nigerian music superstar, Davido has issued an apology to the Muslim community over the recent controversies that trailed a video posted by his principal.

Mr Israel who is a Logistic Manager to Davido said this on Tuesday in a post via his Instagram story handle on Tuesday.

A screenshot of the post was initially shared on GossipmillTv, as the post no longer appears on Mr Israel’s page.

Meanwhile, Mr Israel explained that his boss had shared the video in the spirit of lifting others which he describes as a hobby that Davido loves.

“Let me specially apologise to my Muslims brothers and sisters, on the video my oga posted, as a result of him wanting to lift up somebody, which is one of his hobbies,” he said.

He was reacting to the recent video of Logos, a signee to Davido music label, Davido Music Worldwide (DMW) which was released last week.

Davido, who shared the music video titled “Jaiye Lo” via his Twitter handle, has since deleted it.

The video drew a wide spectrum of reactions. Many Nigerians, notably those from Northern Muslim areas, demanded the musician take down the video because they believed it displayed their faith negatively.

In his reaction, Mr Isreal apologized and described the development saying “It was purely an entertainment effort wrongly presented. Make una no vex. Love you all.
