After his release from prison, where he was held on allegations of defaming fellow Nigerian artist Davido, Dammy Krane has publicly apologized to his fans and the Nigerian public. In a heartfelt message posted on X on August 30, 2024, the singer expressed regret for his past actions and promised to focus on making music moving forward.
“I am sorry about everything, to my fans (I hope I still have fans lol). To my fans, if I still have, I am sorry. Moving on, expect good music from me and music only #lovealwaysleads,” he wrote.
He also extended an apology to Nigerians for the negative energy he has previously put out, acknowledging, “I know a lot was expected of me but I messed up. I wish I could take back the hand of time, but only God can, so I will do what I can, which is to apologize.”
Dammy Krane’s arrest came after he accused Davido of trying to frame him and warned that Davido would be responsible if anything happened to him. Social media personality Verydarkman (VDM) revealed on August 28, 2024, that Dammy Krane had been detained by the police, allegedly at Davido's instigation. Following public outcry and intervention, Dammy Krane was released.
In light of his recent experiences, Dammy Krane announced plans to start a prison reform foundation aimed at helping those who are illegally detained.
