“I apologize to all my fans but duty calls! But I promise new dates would be announced for Houston, Dallas, LA and San Francisco. We will reschedule and add more dates. Shout out to all the fans who sold out each city so far”, he wrote. His management have since released an official statement to this effect, stating that new dates for the completion of the tour would be announced in due time. “Due to scheduling conflicts and National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) commitments in Nigeria, the remaining dates for the Davido Locked Up Tour have been cancelled.
