Davido denies being a part of the #EndSars protest in Abuja.
Nigerians have taken to Twitter to drag music star, Davido for denying his role on during the #EndSars protest held on Sunday, October 11, 2020, in Abuja.
Davido and his team landed in Abuja over the weekend where they joined thousands of Nigerians for the #EndSars protest.
The music star later announced after securing the release of some of the protesters that he was going to have a meeting with the Inspector General of Police on Monday morning.
Things however took a different tune on Monday after a video of the music star in a meeting with the PRO of the Nigeria Police Force, Frank Mba surfaced on social media.
In the video, Davido obviously looking nervous, told Mba that he didn’t want to have a meeting behind closed doors.
Mba interrupted Davido by accusing him of being one of the masterminds of the protest held the previous day.

Shockingly, the music star denied being a part of the protest, “I didn’t protest, I did not protest,” he said.
According to him, he was only there because they are his fans.
Davido’s public denial of the #EndSars protest has been met with backlash from Nigerians on Twitter.
Why did @davido go into a closed door meeting with @PoliceNG? We have been very clear about how we want to engage with the government. We have said it repeatedly that there is no leader and that any address should be made to everyone, at the same time, in public. #SARSMUSTEND

If you have seen that Davido video,
Please just to be clear:
He is NOT speaking for us.
He is NOT speaking for protesters.
He is NOT speaking for #EndSARSThat closed meeting he went for us for himself ONLY.
SARS is NOT a private matter.#EndSARS has NO leaders.

Dem wan use Davido derail protest. They forget that we called Davido and we can “uncall” him at any point. The protest is by the people and for the people. Settle with David, na him one be that. You will still have to settle with millions of Nigerian youths. #SARSMUSTEND

This video is embarrassing. Davido don carry us handicap oo
Davido is denying that he was part of the #ENDSARS protest. He said he was in Abuja because of his fans and he came things down. But he didn't come to join the protest 😭#SARSMUSTEND pic.twitter.com/jgPqBHBlbe— Kelvin Odanz (@MrOdanz) October 12, 2020
Look at Davido shaking like a chicken in the closed door meeting with the police. Man is terrified 😭😭

Davido's look of 'Wetin be all this one now?' is why I am ambivalent about pressuring entertainers and commercial people take on the role of activists. Many are not prepared for the hardcore aspects of it.
My guy was almost apologising for joining the #SARSMUSTEND protest. 🤦🏾♂️

Why he is a saying he just went there to calm his fans down? What is this?
Why did they tell him to take down the camera?? #SARSMUSTEND #SarsMustGoNow

Davido didn't even meet with the IG of police as they promised him. It is Frank Mba that is getting him this terrified that he shat in his pants. 😭😭😭

Davido said he was there to calm Protesters down and not to protest? Who told him protesters were unruly? Why is he allowing Frank intimidate him? Smh. #EndSars #SARSMustEnd
