NYSC sanctioned Davido in 2018

Afrobeats singer Davido participated in NYSC in Lagos state with the 2018 Batch B Stream II. Unfortunately, the 'Omo Baba Olowo singer was sanctioned by the body.

The NYSC disciplined Davido for violating camp rules during the mandatory three-week orientation camp.

The singer was sanctioned for 'absconding' from the camp during the orientation camp. He was said to have absconded because he left the camp without permission.

His action prompted the corps to issue him a query sent directly from Abuja. He was 'dekitted' and that led to the end of his participation in the exercise.

Despite being a superstar, Davido was sanctioned to serve as a deterrent to other corps members.

The singer also violated another of NYSC's bylaws which include bringing vehicles into the orientation camp; disclosing official information; engaging in private practice; taking part in partisan politics and reporting late for duty, according to The Punch report.
