Dammy Krane, the Nigerian singer, has accused Davido, his colleague, of orchestrating his recent arrest.
The dispute, which started last year, stems from Krane’s claims that Davido owes him for songwriting contributions. Krane has also accused Davido of sabotaging his record deal with Sony Music.
In response to the allegations, Davido labeled Krane as “ungrateful” and claimed he received no payment for their collaborations. Davido also mentioned that he provided shelter and support for Krane during a difficult time when he was homeless.
Since then, Krane has continued to attack Davido on social media; even accusing him of being involved in the death of his friend Tagbo Umeike, who died from alleged alcohol poisoning in October 2017.
Davido dismissed claims, and also threatened to sue Krane for “defamation of character and cyberbullying”.
In a recent post on X, Krane alleged that Davido had him arrested.

He claimed that the singer paid the authorities to detain him under the pretense of being involved in illegal activities related to Flutterwave and cryptocurrency scams.
He also warned that if anything happened to him, Davido should be held accountable.
“Oppressor @davido has paid them to arrest me,” he wrote.
“They wrote petition lying that i am into flutterwave & crypto scam just to arrest me.
“This is how they keep using the bad cops to spoil the name of the police. If anything happens to me @davido should be held responsible.”
Davido and his team have not responded to Krane’s latest accusations.
