Muslim youths in the northern part of Nigerian have decided to burn down photos and banners of Nigerian recording artiste, Davido following a controversial video of his ward, Logos Olori that surfaced last weekend.

Davido last weekend shared a snippet of his signee, Logos Olori’s on his Twitter platform. The video titled, ‘Jaye Lo’ which has since been taken down on the microblogging site sparked predominantly negative reactions from Islamic youths across the country.

In the music video, worshippers were seen praying and dancing in front of a mosque.
