Afrobeats global icon, Davido, just hit another major milestone that has the Naija music community on full blast! In these powerful new images, Davido beams with pride as he’s presented with a gleaming plaque backstage, moments after rocking a sold-out crowd of nearly 20,000 fans at the legendary Scotiabank Arena—the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs and one of the largest and most revered venues in Canada.

The first photo captures Davido backstage, surrounded by his team and fans, clutching the framed plaque. His face shines with both gratitude and swagger, a towel slung over his shoulder and a bold “Go Crazy” shirt echoing the energy of the night. Hands reach in, phones snap, as Davido celebrates a night he’ll never forget. In the second photo, Davido—still holding his well-deserved plaque—flashes his signature megawatt smile beside a friend, seated against the iconic Toronto Maple Leafs wall, their joy as palpable as the music that just shook the arena.
