Nigerian singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has gifted his former record label signee, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, known as Mayorkun, a Tesla Cybertruck.
Davido announced the gift on his social media page, sharing a photo of the electric vehicle alongside a short message expressing his affection for the singer.
The Tesla Cybertruck is recognised for its stainless steel exterior and distinctive design, with its cost estimated at between N195 million and N300 million depending on the model and condition.
Mayorkun was signed to Davido's record label, DMW, from 2016 to 2021, during which he released his debut single, "Eleko," under the label.
He went on to release his debut studio album, "The Mayor of Lagos," in November 2018.
Following his exit from DMW in 2021, he released "Let Me Know" and his second studio album, "Back in Office," in October of that year under the Sony Music West Africa division.
