Fans of David Adeleke, better known by his stage as Davido, will now have to wait until 2023 for the Are We African Yet? A.W.A.Y. festival that was originally slated to take place on November 18, 2022.
The concert has now been postponed to Saturday, November 18, 2023, according to a statement made by the singer’s festival management on Instagram.
The company apologised to any disappointed fans and said that tickets purchased this year will be honoured.
