See Why EFCC Is ‘Observing’ Davido: Viral Wedding Video Sparks Reactions

Davido may be known for his generosity and star power, but a recent viral video from the traditional wedding of his manager, Asa Asika, has tongues wagging—and eyes watching. Among the crowd, some say the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is one of them.

In the now-trending clip, Davido is seen standing beside a massive stack of Naira notes during Asa’s wedding to Leona Adesanya, held on May 17, 2025. The visibly emotional singer was delivering heartfelt remarks about his long-time associate when he playfully asked Cubana Chief Priest how much he was adding to a N5 million bundle of cash on display.

With laughter and cheers from guests, Chief Priest casually pledged another N10 million — all in crisp notes.

But here’s where EFCC’s ‘left eye’ comes in:

In a country where cash scarcity has plagued ATMs, and citizens are urged to embrace digital banking, the public display of large cash sums sparked outrage and raised eyebrows.

Watch the video again, and you’ll understand why “EFCC dey observe.”

Social media exploded:

“EFCC just dey observe David with left eye,” one user commented.

“Where dem dey see this kind money? ATM never get 10k since last week,” another added.

“Na bank manager dey behind this kind flexing. EFCC need to check dem,” someone insisted.

Critics say such lavish spraying of cash highlights a double standard — where ordinary citizens queue for hours to withdraw meagre amounts, celebrities seem to access millions in physical cash for events.
