Afrobeats artist Davido has spoken about his relationship with Nigerian fraudster and socialite Ramon Abbas, widely known as Hushpuppi.
Davido acknowledged that while they were friends, he had no knowledge of Hushpuppi’s criminal activities.
In a recent podcast interview, the singer expressed support for Hushpuppi, who is currently serving a prison sentence in the United States, and reassured that he would be released soon.
The 30 Billion Gang leader pointed out that the difficult conditions in Nigeria contribute to many individuals turning to illegal activities as a way to escape poverty.
He said, “Hushpuppi is coming out soon. He lived life. To me, it is not worth it to be locked up. But let me not make excuses for them [fraudsters]. Some people are happy to ball for five years and that is it.
“In Nigeria, there is a kind of hardship you would face and you will be like, you know what? Let me ball for two years then I am good.
“People are like that. My prayers go out to him [Hushpuppi]. He was my friend. I just see him around, I never really knew what he was doing. But he lived a good life.”
