Nigerian pop star, Davido has recounted how he and his team lied to the management of Eko Hotel about the expected turnout for his 30 Billion Concert.
The successful concert which made the Mo Hits crew reunite, was held in December 2017 at the EKO Hotel & Suites, Lagos.
In an encounter with Hip TV, Davido said: “That day was a crazy day for me. I remember waking up and we were looking at ticket sales like how are we going to tell EKO Hotel all these people are coming.
“We had to lie to them about the amount of people that bought tickets because the limit of EKO Hotel was like 6,000 and we had over 10,000 people there.”
The self- proclaimed ‘OBO’ further said the concert was almost called off because of the death of his friends.
Recall that Davido lost his dear friends, Tagbo and DJ Olu in October last year. The sad occurrences threatened his resolve to host the show.
According to him: “This is a concert that we almost called off when I lost my friends .We almost called off the concert because we didn’t think we had the strength or even a good public perception of us at that time. So I was just like ‘I think we should just call it off’.
