Davido was targeted- Osun police confirm attack on Gov Ademola's convoy The Osun state police command has said that singer Davido was the target of an attack on the convoy of Osun State governor, Ademola Adeleke, on Wednesday, August 19. Security escorts of the governor engaged some unidentified men in a gun duel during the governor's visit to the palace of the Ataoja of Osogbo shortly after receiving his certificate of return from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). Davido and the governor's children were in his convoy when the attack occurred. Pandemonium broke after the unknown gunmen began shooting sporadically at the convoy while the governor's security detail returned fire. Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the police command, Abiodun Ojelabi, said preliminary investigation revealed that members of Eye Confraternity were after Davido. "One Adebayo Taoreed, popularly known as "Small Rugged", an ex convict, a suspected notorious thug and a member of eye confraternity allegedly attempted to gain access to Davido but was resisted by members of his security Team. The ensuing confrontation reportedly attracted other suspected gang members in the vicinity, who temporarily blocked the entrance to the palace and obstructed the movement of the convoy of the governor.
