I Opened Shops For 3 Barbers Just Because They Cut My Hair – Davido

Popular singer, Davido has come out to respond to an Abuja-based barber who trolled him on Instagram.

It all started when Davido shared a photo of himself on his page and the barber took to the comment section to describe him as the number three singer in the country.

Reacting, Davido wrote that he had intended to cut his hair with the barber once he lands Abuja, but the barber’s comment has made him dull his generational blessings.

The singer added that he has opened shops for the three barbers who cut his hair in the past.

WOW.
