Afrobeats star Davido has shown his strong support for the Super Eagles by placing a $25,000 (around N36 million) bet on Nigeria’s opening Group C fixture against Tanzania at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The singer shared a photo of his betting slip on X, predicting that both teams would score, with a potential payout of $96,564 (approximately N140 million) if his forecast comes true.
