By Akinwale Kasali

A mourning and devastated Music Star, David Adeleke, popular as Davido, has described the loss of his son, Ifeanyi, as Trying Times

Ifeanyi, three years, Davido and partner Chioma’s son, drowned Monday evening in the swimming pool at his father’s Banana Island, Lagos, residence.

His parents were away to Ibadan when the tragic incident happened. Ifeanyi, who turned three years on October 20, 2022, was left in the hands of his nanny. There were, also, other people in the house at the time. It is not known yet where all them were when the little boy wandered into the swimming pool.

Reacting to his son’s sudden, tragic, death, the Music Star posted a black photograph on his Instagram page, and wrote: “Trying Times. But my God is Always and Forever Faithful.”

The three year old, named after his Uncle, the Governor-elect of Osun State, Senator Ademola Nurudeen Ifeanyi Adeleke, was inside water for a long time. By the time he was discovered in the pool, it was late. He was pronounced dead, on arrival, at the Lagoon Hospital.

He will be buried in Lagos on Tuesday, November 1, 2022.
