A viral video claiming that convicted Nigerian fraudster Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi, attended Afrobeats star David “Davido” Adeleke’s wedding is false.
The video, widely circulated on Facebook, shows Abbas throwing dollar bills at a couple with Davido nearby. Posts claimed he was “granted a brief release to attend Davido’s Miami wedding.”
However, a fact-check revealed the clip is from February 2020, recorded at the wedding of Davido’s brother, Adewale Adeleke, and his wife, Kani Ekanem. Abbas is currently serving an 11-year jail term in the United States after pleading guilty to multimillion-dollar fraud.
Davido’s recent Miami wedding to Chioma Rowland drew elite guests including Aliko Dangote and Kirk Franklin, but there were no reports of Abbas attending.
