With a stellar lineup of artists that kept guests entertained all the way till close to midnight, anticipation kept mounting for when Davido would take to the stage.
And immediately the lights went out, Kololo airstrip was filled with deafening cheers from the excited audience. And true to his reputation as one of Africa’s most dynamic and greatest performers of our time, Davido did not disappoint.
