Kenyans have been abuzz about the upcoming interview between CNN journalist Larry Madowo and Nigerian music superstar Davido. Madowo shared the news on his social media platforms, announcing that the interview would be aired on CNN's African Voices. This interview marks Davido's first since he lost his son in October 2022, and many are curious to see what the singer will share about his experience and how he has been coping.
Interestingly, this isn't the first time that Madowo has interviewed Davido. In 2015, the two sat down for an interview on The Trend. However, the interview ended on a sour note when Davido abruptly walked out in the middle of it. Madowo later wrote a column for the Daily Nation about the incident, criticizing Davido's behavior and banning him from his show.
