Nigerian Choreographer Kafayat Shafau Ameh popularly called Kaffy has come out on her Instagram page ”KAFFYDANCE” to address Davido and all other artistes who take dancers for granted. in a video she says several dancers trained and rehearsed with Davido for the 3 Thrones concert, only for him to cancel on stage at the last minute saying he doesn’t need the dancers anymore.
She calls him out saying it is unethical and unprofessional that after receiving millions of Naira for a show and after 2-3 weeks of rehearsals for him, he treats dancers disrespectfully on top of the bits and pieces they receive.
This attitude of the Omo baba olowo seems not to be new as It can be recalled that on Saturday August 13, 2016. The ‘Aye’ crooner reportedly failed to show up at an event tagged Festival of India where he was billed to perform .
Davido had reportedly called the organizers on Friday, August 12, the night before the event was scheduled to take place to cancel on grounds of ill health.
The singer has since refunded the reported N7 million naira he was paid.

“ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! It’s alright if artiste don’t need us . We are artistes ourselves . It is very disrespectful for you to look down at and trample on people who in one way or the other contribute to where u are today. Dance is our widows mite to a lot of your careers . All u need to do is respect us. Even other people under you suffer ur arrogance from stylist to band men.
This message is for those of you that disrespectfully disregard us dancers especially @davidoofficial if u don’t want dancers express it way before U agree to allow them dance than when u about to climb the stage u decide u don’t need us again.or tell dancers not to come near u while u perform .wtf.
It’s not ur fault we have learnt our lesson and we thank arrogant artiste like u as this will not continue for long. Nowadays artiste take a piss. People pay a lot of money to see u come out and give a good show it requires more than u jumping all over the place with no content .
Even some artiste in other countries who perform alone still plan their craft. They practice they rehearse the Are never tired of doing better than their last. But here most don’t care only few like @peterpsquare and @rudeboypsquare @2niteflavour @tiwasavage @efya_nokturnal @iamseyishay @dareydarey even @jidenna a one man performer plans his craft for his fans. (This is to mention a few out of the few) to those who still respect our craft.”
