Paulo described those dragging the Feel crooner as mad people and he asked them to leave him alone. According to the music executive, Davido spoke the truth because the current state of the economy is very bad.
He added that global companies were leaving the country while local businesses were facing significant loses. The challenges the nation is facing were acknowledged by Paulo and he asked the people to accept the realities.
The 54-year-old prayed that God would bless Nigeria as the people work toward a better country. His post spurred different comments from netizens.
