It's a dumb investment: Davido reacts to Drake's N1.7 billion chain

Popular Nigerian singer and jewelry lover, Davido, appears to have seen a piece of expensive bling that does not appeal to him.

Just recently, the news of Canadian rapper, Drake, buying a brand new Homer chain that cost N1.7 billion, made the rounds online and Davido reacted.

The DMW boss shared the news of Drake’s chain on his Instagram story and explained that he must have been drunk when he showed interest in the jewelry earlier.

According to him, even though he knows he doesn’t have Drake’s kind of money, him buying it would be a dumb investment.
