Singer Oyindamola Emmanuel, popularly known as Dammy Krane, has once again alleged that David Adeleke aka Davido owes him money and is reluctant to settle the debt.

In a post made on X (formerly Twitter) in the early hours of Tuesday, the Dammy Krane said that Davido should pay him, because of his (Dammy Krane’s) daughter.

Dammy Krane in his post written in broken English wrote, “I know it is hard for Rich people to pay debts but #davido if not for my sake Blooda, Pay me my money at least because of my daughter’s sake (your niece if at all) school fees no easy for Naija now o, na everybody dey try secure their future. Na money we want no be wahala o.

He further noted, “Let’s not forget #davido you took Idowest from my record label, I didn’t talk because I saw you as a brother, neither did I drag the artiste (cos I had done my part to help him). Genuinely I want to know why you don’t want to pay me for a song you tweeted that I wrote after all.”

Dammy Krane had in September 2022 publicly accused Davido of refusing to pay for his songwriting contribution to an earlier released track, even after reaching out to the DMW boss privately.
