Nigerian music star Davido has sparked conversations online after speaking about the lack of proper interstate tours for artists within Nigeria.
According to the singer, Nigerian artists have toured internationally across North America but have not fully explored organized tours across different states in the country.
“Nigerian artists have never really done a full interstate tour before, but we’ve toured all over North America 😭💔
I’m tired of performing at Eko Hotel… but I heard they’re already building an arena in Lagos,” Davido said.
His statement has since generated reactions online, with many fans agreeing that Nigeria needs better entertainment infrastructure and more concert venues outside Lagos.
