Afrobeats singer, Davido, has pulled out of his upcoming concert with 50 Cent and Mary J. Blige at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. 


Davido announced his withdrawal on Instagram, citing unresolved issues with the event's curators, Iconic Presents, regarding the quality and integrity of his performance.


The singer, who also hinted at experiencing discrimination, stressed the need for respect for African creatives. 


Despite his withdrawal, Davido assured his London fans that he would still perform in the city during the summer as part of his 5Alive tour.


The concert, scheduled for July 3, will proceed without Davido. 


Other notable Nigerian musicians like Burna Boy and Wizkid, had previously sold out Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on their own.
