The Orangun of Oke-Ila in Osun state, Oba Adedokun Abolarin, has revealed that the mother of Nigeria’s foremost music artist, David Adeleke, aka Davido, helped to rescue his son who was drowning in a swimming pool, 25years ago.
Oba Abolarin disclosed this while reacting to the sad incident of the singer’s loss of his son, Ifeanyi, who drowned at their home pool, in Lagos.
The Orangun that Veronica Adeleke, Davido’s Mother, rescued his son and it is quite disheartening that no one helped her grandson (Ifeanyi), when he was drowning.
He wrote on Facebook;
“Amen and Amen. So sad, it was David’s mummy, Late Dr Mrs Veronica Adeleke that rescued my own son inside the swimming pool some twenty five years ago.
“I am sad, what Veronica did for my son years back, nobody, I mean nobody, to play that same role for Veronica’s grandson, Ifeanyi!!!
“Who are we to query God. May his soul rest in peace and may Veronica’s soul continue to rest in peace. Fantastic woman.”
