Davido Settles N2.3bn Lawsuit with Pinnick, Agrees to Perform at Delta Concert

Nigerian music star, David Adeleke, famously known as Davido, has come to terms to settle a breach of contract lawsuit filed against him by the Brownhill Investment Company Limited, led by Amaju Pinnick, out of court.

In October 2023, PUNCH Online reported that Pinnick, a former president of the Nigeria Football Federation, criticized Davido for failing to fulfill his performance obligations at an event despite receiving $94,600.

Brownhill Investments Company Limited lodged a suit labeled EHC/183/2023 before the Delta State High Court in Effurun, seeking N2.3bn from Davido. The firm accused Davido of breaching a contract by not fulfilling his performance obligations at the 19th edition of the ‘Warri Again’ concert, even after receiving the agreed fees.

However, The Cable reported that the two parties reached a mutual agreement to resolve the issue outside of the courtroom.
