Popular afropop sensation, David Adeleke, Davido, thrilled his fans with great performance at a concert in Port Harcourt on Sunday night.
Thousands of Port Harcourt residents thronged out in their numbers to see the show tagged ‘Plugged’.
Tickets were sold out although the crowd seemed almost impossible to manage with Davido and show organizers working tirelessly to curtail fans’ excitement.
The event, held at the Pleasure Park and organised by Chima Aguma, caused a traffic gridlock in the whole town as revellers turned out in thousands to watch the ‘If’ crooner perform.
In his electrifying performance, Davido took the crowd on a memory ride, singing his hit songs from the early ‘Dami Duro’ and ‘If’ to newest ‘Aza and Wonder Woman’.
The mostly-reserved PH crowd was obviously loosened up at the concert as they sang along at the top of their voices and danced while he performed.
Davido of the popular and wealthy Adeleke’s family in Osun state, also on Sunday promised to work for the re-election of Wike, the governorship candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
“I am also here to see my godfather, Gov. Wike and to support his second term bid.
“I am planning a talent hunt show in Port Harcourt, one of the lucky artists will perform at my show in Lagos on Dec. 27,” he said.
The musician, who made the pledge in Port Harcourt on Sunday when he visited the Rivers Governor, also said he would also institute a talent hunt show for Rivers-based artistes.
He said the programme would be in line with his discussions with the State Government to support new generation artists in the state.
