Davido’s Enugu concert at Michael Okpara Square ended in chaos on Saturday night as fans complained of overcrowding, harassment, and poor security.
The event, which formed part of the singer’s ongoing “5ive Tour,” reportedly drew far more people than the 20,000-capacity venue could handle.
Witnesses said the gates were broken and that many without tickets forced their way inside.
Fans share harrowing experiences
Several attendees took to social media to narrate their ordeals.
A user said touts entered the concert without tickets and stole valuables from people in the crowd. She also alleged that the security presence was weak throughout the night.
Another fan, described disturbing scenes of harassment and overcrowding, alleging that women were groped as people struggled for space.
She said Davido did not appear on stage until around 3 a.m., almost 12 hours after the advertised start time.
Calls for accountability from organisers
The incident sparked widespread outrage online, with fans calling for better planning and accountability from the concert organisers.
Many criticised the lack of crowd control, describing it as a “total failure of security.”
A TikTok user, broke down in tears as she revealed losing her wig, phone, and shoes during the chaos.
While others shared similar accounts of theft, panic, and inadequate safety measures.

For those of you that did not attend Davido’s show in Enugu, you did yourself a favor for not coming, cause half of the girls there were robbed. The ticket was 3k which is very cheap, too much thieves were there, some people were even hospitalized. Davido did a very fuulish job… pic.twitter.com/FAlUtKzVtL
