Blogger Pinovibes has accused Nigerian artist Davido of causing the loss of their Instagram account, which reportedly had over 1.8 million followers. The controversy centers on Davido’s past endorsement of Racksterli, a scheme that was later identified as fraudulent. Pinovibes claims that their account was flagged and ultimately deactivated for promoting Racksterli, a move influenced by Davido’s initial support of the platform, which allegedly lent it credibility.
The Racksterli platform, promoted as an investment opportunity, collapsed in 2021, leaving many users at a loss. While Davido distanced himself from the scheme after its collapse, Pinovibes blames his endorsement for the account’s association with the fraudulent platform. This incident has sparked conversations about the responsibility of influencers and celebrities in endorsing financial products or services without thorough verification.
