Nigerian music super-star, Davido, has postponed his forthcoming festival tagged, Are We Africans Yet (A.W.A.Y), which was scheduled to hold on November 18, 2022. It was gathered that the event which was billed to hold on November 2022 at the 20,000-capacity State Farm Arena in Atlanta Georgia, has been rescheduled for November 18, 2023. The show was to have several top African stars perform like; Mayorkun, Stonebwoy, BNXN, Kizz Daniel, Pheelz, Lojay, and other artists.
