Nigerian Afrobeats singer, Davido, has issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Kenya’s Mediamax’s K24 TV, to tender an unreserved apology.

He has asked them to admit to defaming him and compensate him appropriately, or risk being dragged to court.

This was contained in a pre-suit letter, in which the singer served Kenya’s K24 TV over an 'April Fool’s Day reportage about his false arrest at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.

The report was captured with the headline, “Davido detained at JKIA after Sh18 million cocaine haul found in his private jet.”

However, in a notice by Conrad Law Advocates yesterday, Davido faulted the publication, while demanding an unreserved apology.

“The statements found in your article are blatantly false and published with the express intent of disparaging our client,” the singer’s advocates stated.

“Your statements are false and affect our client’s professional reputation by falsely stating that Davido was arrested for drug-related offenses,” the law firm asserted.

Davido’s lawyers insisted that they will proceed to file a suit within 48 hours if their demands are unmet.
