Nigerian singer and DMW Records signee, Victor Tobechukwu Okoh popularly called Peruzzi has recounted how he lost N400,000 sent to him by Davido to be delivered to Dubai in a taxi..

Recounting how it happened, Peruzzi disclosed that his boss Davido sent him N400,000 from Dubai in order to pay for his ticket to Dubai. Peruzzi stated that Davido helped him to get his passport in 24 hours and sent him money to book his ticket to Dubai but unfortunately, he mistakenly transferred the money to the Uber driver he picked. Peruzzi disclosed that after he realized his mistake, he called the Uber driver who later switched off his off after receiving the money.

In his words….

So he just to me that I should come to Dubai. Because when he called me I was in the room doing nothing. He asked ‘do you have a passport?’ I said I don’t have a passport and he okay that he would call somebody,” he said.

“Then I got the passport the next day. Then he said ‘send your account for ticket’ Me a very useless guy at that time I didn’t have an account, I was using different accounts. The account number I copied was the Uber guy that carried me. Omo Uber guy switched off his phone after collecting 400k.”

“I was like my ticket money is gone! I was looking for the Uber guy on Facebook. I went crazy. I went to Uber’s office and they said they had stopped the guy from working like a month ago. I was like where will I see 400k? What will I tell this guy that I just met? He would think that I have spent the money.”
