Nigerian Afrobeats star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has said his three-night residency at Lagos’ National Theatre will show the world that African artists can create major global music moments from home.
Davido, who will headline the newly renovated National Theatre from December 17 to 19, said the residency is part of his desire to bring Afrobeats, its audience and its economic impact back to Nigeria.
The singer made the remarks in an interview with CNN, saying, “It’s very important that we show the outside world that we have these kinds of facilities in Africa as well. We’re really showing people that we can do this ourselves.”
