Popular Nigerian singer Davido has taken to social media to announce that he is changing his phone number, effectively cutting off several friends from his contact list.
According to Davido, he needs some 'cleansing' and has decided to prioritize his own life. He made this announcement on social media, advising those who cannot reach him to refrain from doing so.
"If you can't reach me, don't reach me. All my life, I have put people before me...I think it is time to actually live my life and take care of myself. I have changed my number! I need some cleansing to do love y'all," he wrote.
On a related note, Davido has also unfollowed his fellow countryman, Wizkid, and his label signee Peruzzi on Instagram. This comes after Peruzzi found himself in serious trouble, with a young lady accusing him of raping her eight years ago.
Just a day ago, Davido's lawyer shared photos of him stepping out of a hospital in crutches after reportedly fracturing his left ankle. "How some people chose to enter June. Nawa. At some point yesterday we were literally thanking God there are no shows right now. Get well soon bro @davidoofficial," he captioned the photos.
Chioma Avril Rowland, Davido's girlfriend and the mother of his younger son, also took to social media to wish him a quick recovery, confirming the news of his injuries.
Following news that he had changed his number, netizens turned on dancehall singer Cynthia Morgan, who has been trying to make a comeback after a musical hiatus. Initially, Davido had promised to help her out in her comeback journey, but it seems he has left her on the cold.
Before making the announcement, Davido had given his fans a sneak peek into his newly purchased mansion worth a fortune in Nigeria's leafy Banana Island, Lagos. An excited Davido took to his social media to tease fans with photos of the mansion's interior and flaunted an elevator that he said he had installed as he has always wanted to have one in his crib.
