Afrobeats superstar Davido has finally broken his silence about his friendship with convicted fraudster Hushpuppi! In a candid interview, Davido admitted they were indeed close pals, but he had absolutely no clue about Hushpuppi’s shady business moves.
The DMW boss revealed that while he admired Hushpuppi’s luxury lifestyle like many others, he never questioned the source of his wealth.
Fans have since flooded social media with mixed reactions, as Davido distanced himself from the fraud saga. Hushpuppi is currently serving over 11 years behind bars for masterminding global scams!
Davido stated,
“My prayers go out to him, he’s my friend. I just used to see him around — I never really knew what he was doing. But he lived a good life.”
“Some people are okay with enjoying life for a few years, then whatever happens after is fine with them,” he added.
Before Hushpuppi’s shocking arrest in 2020, Davido and the flashy socialite were often spotted hanging out at parties, luxury events, and high-end gatherings sparking endless rumors about how deep their bond really was.
But Davido has now set the record straight, making it clear their relationship was purely social, nothing more. His confession has stirred massive buzz online, with fans debating his loyalty, honesty, and the blurred lines between fame, friendship, and fraud!
