Davido blacklisted in Dubai over offensive religious video – Kemi Olunloyo

Nigerian journalist, Kemi Olunloyo claims that superstar singer, David Adeleke professionally known as Davido has been blacklisted in Dubai, UAE.

She hinted that the music star and his signee, Logos Olori were barred from entering the United Arab Emirates due to their offensive music video.

Davido, sparked an outrage on Saturday after uploading a new music video for Logos Olori via Twitter which had been welcomed with huge criticisms, especially by Muslims who considered the content “offensive and disrespectful” to their religion.

The footage captured a group of men, all in white ‘jalamiya’ praying, then, in a twist, they all transitioned into dancing in front of a mosque.

OBO in the tweet, captioned: “Allow me to re-introduce, @logosori with his new single “Jaye Lo”… Lets Run It Up one time! Let’s take over the world.”

However, his tweet didn’t sit well with Muslim faithful as the content of the video was seen as offensive to Islam. Many vowed to stop downloading his songs, and others threatened to report or mete out justice themselves if he fails to take down the video and tender an apology.
