Popular Nigerian comedian-turned-singer Lawal Michael Nasiru Bolaji, better known as Nasboi, miraculously escaped a severe car accident while traveling between Jos and Bauchi. The incident occurred during his 36-state kneeling tour, an ambitious campaign to secure a music collaboration with Afrobeats superstar Davido.
Nasboi’s journey, which began on May 29 in Osun State, has captivated fans, with the hashtag #NasboiDavidoVerse trending across social media. His dedication involves kneeling at government secretariats across all Nigerian states, appealing for a verse from Davido—a quest inspired by years of failed attempts to get the singer’s attention.
Tragedy struck earlier today when Nasboi’s vehicle was involved in an accident. A video of the damaged car went viral, sparking panic among supporters. However, the entertainer took to Instagram Live to reassure fans: “I’m okay, guys. It could have been worse, but thank God I’m here,” Nasboi shared, visibly shaken but determined.
Nasboi’s story is one of resilience. Originally gaining fame for mimicking Davido in comedy skits, his passion for music never wavered. Songs like Small Money and Umbrella showcase his artistry, proving his talent extends beyond viral skits.
With several states left to visit, Nasboi remains committed to his mission. Whether or not Davido grants his request, his bold campaign has already solidified his reputation as one of Nigeria’s most relentless entertainers.
