Popular Nigerian dancer, Kaffy lashed out at Davido
at the early hours of today, October 26 for a supposed disrespectful
treatment of some back-up dancers at a recent concert by the singer.
‘This message goes to Mr Omo Baba Olowo…. Please help me tell him he is a motherfucker from all dancers all over the country,’ she ranted in the clip which has since gone viral.
With Davido yet to respond to the allegation, Kaffy
has again insisted dancers should not be disrespected by Nigerian
artists, though she apologised for her choice of words in her earlier
rant.
‘I want to start by apologizing profusely for my
profanity. It’s not how I roll .i am one person who promote discipline
and respect among dancers towards their clients and one another,’ she wrote.
‘However this issue is REAL. We MATTER and
deserve respect as we have become part of the building block of the
entertainment world. We communicate with our bodies what words and sound
can’t express. We paint a picture that defies laws of nature ND produce
masterpieces beyond mere imaginations.
‘It requires a lot of brainpower to begin to be a
dancer not to talk of the ability to command muscles people can’t
imagine using and that is still underrating the Power of the Art of
Dance. From youth empowerment to mind empowerment it is
the least looked into form of psychological, physical and spiritual
reformation.
‘And I can categorically tell u a lot of lives have been changed for the better because we danced.
‘So WE MATTER. beyond the dance floor we matter
against all odds of societal definition of success we matter, thrive and
we rule.
‘So it is time we take control and have a voice.
Create structure that will protect us from further disrespect and I will
do all in my power to continue to protect dancers.I know great minds
out there in our world that will rise up too. It’s been years and I have
been quiet for too long.
‘And this is not just in Africa it’s everywhere.
Davido was just the last straw. It didn’t start with him but we can put a
stop. Thank you to all who support this fight. God bless.’ THE NET
