Kaffy took to Instagram in the early hours of this morning, Wednesday, October 26, 2016 to issue a message to Davido
In a video post, Kaffy said Davido had fired some dancers as they were about to take the stage after practicing for weeks and him agreeing to work with them.
"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! It's alright if artiste don't need us. We are artistes ourselves . It is very disrespectful for you to look down at and trample on people who in one way or the other contribute to where u are today. Dance is our widows mite to a lot of your careers .
“All u need to do is respect us. Even other people under you suffer ur arrogance from stylist to band men. This message is for those of you that disrespectfully disregard us dancers especially.
@davidoofficial if u don't want dancers express it way before U agree to allow them dance than when u about to climb the stage u decide u don't need us again.or tell dancers not to come near u while u perform .wtf.
It's not ur fault we have learnt our lesson and we thank arrogant artiste like u as this will not continue for long. Nowadays artiste take a piss. People pay a lot of money to see u come out and give a good show it requires more than u jumping all over the place with no content .
Even some artiste in other countries who perform alone still plan their craft. They practice they rehearse the Are never tired of doing better than their last. But here most don't care only few like @peterpsquare and @rudeboypsquare @2niteflavour @tiwasavage @efya_nokturnal @iamseyishay @dareydarey even @jidenna a one man performer plans his craft for his fans. (This is to mention a few out of the few)."
Kaffy was not disrespected personally. But this was her business. The veteran dancer is regarded as the number one dancer in the country, an inspiration to all aspiring dancers, and a leader of the art. Every dancer in Nigeria who has aspirations looks up to her as an icon in the field.
Kaffy also dabbles into music, as her husband ‘Papi J Ameh’, is also a drummer and an artiste signed to Peter Okoye’s P-Classic Records.
Perhaps those dancers had reached out to her and explained how all of their efforts had been made null by David. And in the absence of any legal channel to seek redress, Kaffy was called upon and intimated. Her anger was palpable, her voice was ridden with rage, and she passed across a message.
Dancers need to be respected. And Kaffy, who is the lead dancer is in the best position to enforce it.
