NDLEA set to investigate Davido's music video 'Fans mi'.

Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency has set up a panel to investigate a
music video released by Nigerian artiste, Davido, in which he displayed a
substance suspected to be hard drugs.

The video of his track entitled, ‘Fans mi’, in which he featured an American
rapper and member of the Maybach Group, Meek Mill, showed Davido with a
briefcase filled with dollars and another bag filled with parcels of a substance
suspected to be hard drugs.


The Director of Public Affairs of the NDLEA, Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju, said on
Saturday that the investigative panel might invite the hip-hop artiste for
questioning if the need arose.

He said, “I am aware that a panel is working on it (the video). The panel was
set up soon after the video was released few weeks ago.

“When our attention was drawn to it, we viewed it and we discovered that it
was improper. There is no moral lesson in it and he was just advertising drug
trafficking.
“In the video, he exchanged a brief case supposedly containing narcotics for
dollars. He was displaying affluence in the video. If it (the plot) had climaxed
in an arrest and possible detention, we would have congratulated him for
partnering with us. But the way he portrayed drug trafficking in the video was
a means to an end, which the end is a life of affluence which we disagree
with.”
