Pop star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, enjoys passionate and loyal supporters worldwide. His engaging, charismatic personality fuels a vibrant social‑media presence. On October 31, 2022, he suffered the tragic loss of his only son, Ifeanyi, prompting an outpouring of grief and well‑wishes from millions of fans to him and the boy’s mother, Chioma. Following the tragedy, Davido withdrew from social media, making only a brief return on December 18 and 19, 2022, surrounding his spectacular performance at the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
Together with Trinidad Cardona (USA) and Aisha (Qatar), Davido recorded the tournament’s theme song, “Hayya Hayya (Better Together).” He posted a picture of himself being dressed by Chioma before the show, which garnered a record 2,032,394 likes. The next day he shared photos of himself on stage with the other artists, attracting 1,383,551 likes. Despite the enthusiastic response, fans remain eager for his full return to social media and new music.
Recently, some fans staged a protest on the streets of Lagos, demanding Davido’s comeback to the music scene and online platforms. One demonstrator, draped in white cloth, carried what appeared to be a sacrifice in an attempt to hasten his return. The calls for his comeback have intensified after Davido previously announced he would reappear in public in March. Earlier, his logistics manager, Israel DMW, hinted in a now‑deleted post that a new album was forthcoming.
In other news, Davido made headlines when he gifted a commercial tricycle driver N1 million after a video surfaced showing the driver’s tricycle adorned with images of the “Dami Duro” singer. Adding comic relief, skit maker OGB Recent posted a video of himself driving a tricycle splashed with Davido’s pictures.
