Popular Ghanaian TikTok creator Ananzo, best known as the 'washing bay promoter,' has finally addressed the rumours surrounding the $5,000 reportedly promised to him by Nigerian singer and billionaire David Adeleke, aka Davido.

In a video shared on social media, the washing bay promoter clarified that he hasn't gotten feedback from the singer and his team, but he still remains optimistic.

Ananzo claimed that although he hasn't received the $5,000 amount, he remains deeply grateful to Davido for the exposure.

He stated that aside from the $5,000 promise, Davido's action had opened a lot of opportunities for him. According to him, Davido's repost led him to meet many celebrities and even gain fans in Nigeria.

He added that $5,000 isn’t a big deal for the 30BG crew.

He said in part:

"We are getting to 1 million because of the exposure Davido has given us. I am very grateful for the exposure, the money, which is the $5,000, is a promise. The money is not yet in."

"But the money is not the issue. But the exposure, bro. Bro, the exposure. I now have a fan base in Nigeria. People hold my banner, people hold the brand. People look up to me. Just me. An ordinary washing bay boy. Because of Davido. It is because of his repost..."
