- Following Davido’s devastating loss on all three Grammy nominations, his lawyer is now the target of online fury, facing a fiery barrage of criticism from netizens mere hours after the awards ceremony.
- Before the music extravaganza kicked off, the singer’s lawyer stirred up a storm with his pre-award shenanigan, left fans boiling with rage as they pin the blame on him for their beloved artist’s lack of Grammy glory.
Internet users are up in arms and tearing into Davido’s attorney, Prince Bobo, over his actions prior to the 66th Grammys, which purportedly put a damper on the music star’s shot at snagging an award.
Bobo took to his Instagram story to showcase a Grammy plaque before any winners were announced in the three categories featuring the OBO crooner at the 66th Grammys, sparking controversy over potentially jinxing his chances.
In a fiery storm of disapproval, fans of the singer unleashed a torrent of fury on social media, lambasting Bobo for his ill-timed Instagram post.

Dear @davido before you win Grammy, you need to have a good lobbyist.
Not with that your Oleriburuku lawyer and your crew.Grammy awards are not voted by fans but by cartels.
