Nigerian photographer Abusalami is publicly calling out musician Davido for allegedly owing him 218 million naira (over $200,000 USD) for an unfinished football project.
In a heated social media post, Abusalami claimed Davido brought him on to shoot a documentary focused on the singer’s football talents.
He was never paid for the work despite repeated asks from Davido’s team, the photographer alleges.
Abusalami goes on to accuse Davido of avoiding him and warning that the singer will face problem after problem until the debt is settled.
He also shared screenshots of conversations that appear to corroborate the deal and ensuing payment issues.
Davido has not directly responded to the accusations, though fans note he seemed to vaguely reference Abusalami in a recent Instagram story.
While Davido is no stranger to controversies, this latest incident has brought renewed scrutiny to how he handles business.
