Why I created AWAY Festival – Davido

Famous Afrobeat musician, Davido has disclosed why he created ‘Are We African Yet? (AWAY) Festival.

“Why I want to do this is because when I was going out in America and I hear a song, I am like, ‘this is an African song.

“So I want to give those types of people the opportunity to come every year, at different times to perform.”
