‘I can’t verify if Davido slapped me or his boys because I saw stars once the slap landed’ – Kizz Daniel’s manager calls out Davido
Davido’s concert held in Lagos last night, and apart from the expected thrills and fun, there are many reports of some ugly scenes that occurred when Kizz Daniel’s manager, Tumi Lawrence got slapped at the backstage.
This morning, he took to Twitter to call out Davido and his team who witnessed him getting slapped and did nothing.
Following his tweet, LIB reached out to him and he narrated what happened saying,‘I was backstage talking to Asa (Davido’s manager) because we’ve been waiting for like twom hours to perform and we actually had other engagements that we cancelled just to come and show Davido love based on the fact that we have a popping song together ‘One Ticket’ and he’s also showed us love too’.So I talking to Asa like when are we going on stage and his countenance wasn’t really welcoming so I was trying to inform Kizz and my guys and I noticed someone pushing me from behind, and I looked back like ‘who go dey push person for GreenRoom (backstage)’.When I looked back, It was Davido and his guys asking ‘who be dis one, who be dis one’ and they told them, ‘na Kizz Daniel manager’ before I knew it they poured drink on my face and slapped me‘first they poured drinks on my face before the slap landed and I immediately saw stars and I saw one black guy but people around were saying it was David himself but I can’t verify that because if dem slap you na stars you go dey see.
‘It doesn’t make any sense though, because we were there just to show love and it wasn’t like they were in front of me and I pushed them, they just came from behind’ he added.
