Patrick Doyle speaks up against Davido’s outfit to Olu of Warri’s Palace

Nigerian actor Patrick Doyle shared his opinion about Davido’s outfit choice for the palace of Ogiame Atuwatse III, the Olu of Warri.

Davido had been in Warri for the “Warri Again” concert, which was held over the past weekend; however, before the concert began, the Nigerian singer, along with Amaju Pinnick, AY Makun, Cubana Chief Priest, and Phyno, all visited the Olu of Warri.
