World-famous Nigerian singer, Davido, who is the CEO of the DMW record label, has followed Lil Frosh, his former signee, on Instagram amidst plea for contract reinstatement.
This is coming hours after Lil Frosh took to social media to beg Davido for another chance to revive his career after damaging assault case.
Daily Post reports that Davido terminated his Lil Frosh contract with DMW record label in 2020 following alleged assault on his ex-girlfriend, Gift Camille.
On his social media page on Saturday, Lil Frosh told his side of the story, two years after the incident which led to the termination of his contract at DMW Records.
He further urged his former boss for reinstatement.
Following his plea for reinstatement, Davido followed him back on Instagram.
A check by DAILY POST on his profile confirmed that Davido has followed Lil Frosh on Instagram.
Didier Drogba, the world-renowned Chelsea legend, celebrated with Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen after Nigeria secured a 2-0 victory over Cameroon in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) round of 16 on Saturday night.
Osimhen gave an impressive display in Nigeria’s attack, as two goals from Ademola Lookman sealed the victory for Jose Peseiro’s side against Cameroon.
The 25-year-old has been the subject of intense speculation over his club’s future after Napoli owner Aurelio de Laurentiis announced a few days ago that he would leave the Serie A champions at the end of the season.
On Saturday, reports claimed that Osimhen had already decided to join Chelsea at the end of the season.
Later that night, Osimhen met up with one of Chelsea’s legendary strikers, Drogba at AFCON, where he was congratulated by the Ivorian after Nigeria defeated Cameroon.

The pair also spoke together on Ivorian network NCI where Osimhen said: “It is an honour to play on the land of Didier Drogba, my idol.”
Osimhen will now hope to lead Nigeria to victory when they tackle Angola in the AFCON quarter-final on February 2.
Lil Frosh, a Nigerian singer who is a former signee of Davido Music Worldwide (DMW), has publicly appealed to his former boss for a second chance.
Recall that in 2020, Lil Frosh was accused of assault by his ex, Gift Camille.
Camille’s brother, Michael in a series of posts on social media, alleged that Lil Frosh assaulted Camille on several occasions.
He shared pictures of his sister’s badly bruised face.
The singer was later arraigned before a Yaba magistrate court and remanded in Ikoyi prison.
Reacting to the development, Davido terminated Lil Frosh’s contract with his record label, DMW.
Camille later withdrew her case against Lil Frosh in 2022, after settling out of court.
However, on Saturday in a post on his Instagram page, the singer claimed innocence and begged Davido for another chance to revive his career.
“God knows I didn’t beat Gemini, I was framed, I was blackmailed. I still can’t get my career after all I paid her because of the lies that were told against me.
“Nobody gave me listening ears. I tried to explain to my ex-boss @davido but he didn’t want to listen because of his zero tolerance for hitting women. Help me beg Davido to give me a chance again.”
