“I am so sorry for telling that joke the way it came out in Warri. I shouldn’t even call it a joke anymore . It wasn’t funny like it was during my tour of US and Canada, and you have every right to be angry after seeing how the blogs used it.

Please know that it is always a learning experience for all of us in the entertainment business. I deserve any backlash or negative thoughts coming my way for the joke that was badly delivered in Warri. So, no excuses at all, my Aburo. No reason am. I remain your number one fan, and I love you, @davido.”

He not only acknowledged the apology but also conveyed his lack of offence over the matter.

“Nothing spoil baba mi”.
