The Video Call That Got Fans Talking
Excitement around the show grew after the short clip of Great Osama on a phone call surfaced on TikTok. The video was posted by a user called Mr Prince with the caption “The great Osama on a video call with OBO”, using Davido’s popular nickname.
In the clip, the two men exchange greetings. According to YEN.com.gh, Davido is heard saying “See you very soon” towards the end of the call.
However, 3News noted in its report that the face on the phone screen cannot be clearly made out, so the caption’s claim could not be independently verified from the video alone.
Fans who reacted to the clip appeared convinced. “So it’s true,” one user, Afia Antwiwaa, commented, while another, allansmith2984, wrote: “Davido dey call am chairman. Make you people dey play.”
What Great Osama Said About Booking Davido
Great Osama spoke about the booking in an interview on Angel FM. According to GhanaWeb, he spoke after Davido confirmed in a social media video that he had been booked for the event.
The hotel owner admitted the process took effort. “It wasn’t easy,” he said, adding that persistence helped him land the deal.
He also said his experience with the singer was different from what he had been told. “The information I got is that Davido is a troublesome person, but that is not what I have seen so far,” he said. “Davido is such a humble person.”
Osama went further to compare the Nigerian star with some local acts. “Some of our very own artistes demand a lot compared to what Davido is asking for,” he said, before adding: “My prayers are that he comes and goes back safely.”
What Has Not Been Confirmed
There has been plenty of talk online about how much Osama paid to bring Davido to Manso. Neither Davido, his management nor the organisers have confirmed any figure.
3News also reported on Thursday that Davido’s team had not confirmed the Manso date and that the singer had not posted about it himself, with most of the information coming from the organiser’s side.
Who Is Great Osama?
Great Osama, whose real name is Kwaku Abonee, is a businessman and the CEO of NYC Hotel at Manso Akwasiso. He also chairs the Amansie South Small-Scale Miners Association.
According to YEN.com.gh, his hotel has reportedly hosted Shatta Wale and Sarkodie in the past. He celebrated his 50th birthday in May 2026, and in January 2025 he donated a medical incubator worth about GH¢10,000 to St. Martin’s Catholic Hospital at Manso Agroyesum.
How the Davido Manso Show Was Announced
News of the show first broke in early November, when a promotional flyer for “The Davido Experience” began circulating on social media. The hotel’s TikTok page has been promoting the event and ticket sales.

A video of the hotel later surfaced online, showing a large sign bearing Osama’s name, a multi-storey building, an outdoor pool and Davido-branded accreditation passes.
A Davido performance in a mining community in the Ashanti Region is unusual, and that is a big part of why the event has drawn so much attention. Big-name concerts in the region are usually held in Kumasi, as seen when Sarkodie shut down Kumasi with a massive convoy ahead of Rapperholic 2026.
Davido’s Ghana Connection
Davido has long enjoyed a strong following in Ghana. 3News noted that he paid tribute to the late highlife legend Daddy Lumba during a concert in Toronto last year, and he recently featured on King Promise’s song “Bad Habits”. King Promise himself was among the acts who lit up the Hitz-Joy Beach Rave 2026.
The singer has also been in the headlines lately for other reasons, including his online fallout with activist VeryDarkMan, after the two unfollowed each other on Instagram.
All eyes are now on Manso Akwasiso on Sunday night. If Davido takes the stage as billed, it will be one of the most talked-about shows in the Ashanti Region this year.
