Davido’s son, Ifeanyi is reportedly dead

Ifeanyi Adeleke, the son of well-known musician Davido and his fiancée, Chioma Rowland, is said to have passed away, and this has sparked strong emotions.

As of the time of filing this report, information on the circumstances of Ifeanyi’s death was still hazy.

Unconfirmed rumours suggested that Davido’s first child drowned in a swimming pool at his home in the Banana Island district of Lagos State.

After being taken from the pool, the three-year-old boy was reportedly rushed to a hospital in the Lekki district of the state, where one of the attending physicians confirmed his death.

At the time this article was written, the victim’s family still hadn’t responded to the unfortunate turn of events.

However, Nigerians—especially fans of entertainment—have been incensed and traumatized by the development ever since the news of Ifeanyi’s alleged death became public knowledge.

Daddy Freeze, who went live on Instagram in the early hours of Tuesday morning said, “When the person you love is someone involved it becomes a heavy emotional burden. I am not confirming anything but bear with me I will not be live tonight.”

Lasisi Elenu also posted, “Father heal your children’s hearts from this pain, strengthen them in such a dark and hurtful time oh Lord.”

Reality TV star and actress, Rosemary Afuwape, said on her Instagram story, “My heart can’t take this. This is so painfully unbearable. Chioma and Davido please accept my condolences. No amount of words can comfort your hearts. I am truly sorry for your loss.”
