Davido uses W'Cup stage to demand action for abducted Nigerian pupils

At the 2026 FIFA World Cup countdown concert, Afrobeats superstar Davido wore a custom jacket with 'BRING THEM HOME' on the back and green buttons bearing the names of abducted pupils and teachers from Oyo State's Oriire Local Government Area. Names in white indicated those still in captivity, while red names signified those who died. Davido pleaded with the Nigerian government to expedite rescue operations and expressed sorrow for the victims, using his platform to highlight the country's ongoing security challenges.
