The mystery behind the death of three of Davido's friends, Tagbo, DJ Olu and Chime in the space of one week is one story too strange to comprehend.

Davido and Tagbo

In the case of Tagbo, his death has raised so many eyebrows because of the controversy surrounding his demise. He was reported to have been with Davido and his crew at a nightclub on October 4, 2017, before they allegedly decided to play a drinking game which had a winning price of an iPhone 8 and N200,000 cash, a game which went bad.


It was alleged that Davido and his crew decided to leave the club and insisted that Tagbo should ride in Davido's car, an offer he declined. However, he was allegedly carried to the General Hospital where his corpse was dumped, leaving speculations over what transpired after the drinking contest.

Just when the death of Tagbo was still causing a lot of commotion, the death of DJ Olu and Chime both friends of Davido was announced. Shocking right?

On October 8, 2017, it was reported that DJ Olu and Chime were both found dead in DJ Olu's car. It is still unclear as to what really was the cause of death. DJ Olu was a member of the HKN Label, which had Davido as its boss.
