Nigerian music star, David Adeleke a.k.a Davido, is reported to be broken and inconsolable over the death of his son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
The Nigerian singer’s son passed on yesterday after he drowned in a swimming pool at home, according to multiple sources.
“The boy drowned for too long with no one to help. He was pulled out and rushed him to the hospital but it was already too late,” a family source revealed.
Apparently, the housemaid had left Ifeanyi behind to receive a call but when she returned, she couldn’t trace where the kid was. However, she assumed that perhaps the kid had moved back into the house.
It is said that the housemaid embarked on frantically searching for the deceased in all corners for close to 20 minutes until a security guard spotted him in the pool. No one could explain how the boy got in the pool.
Davido and Chioma had travelled to another State and left their son behind. The couple is said to have returned from their trip to the devastating news which indeed broke them down totally.
“Davido ran mad. He literally removed his clothes and attempted to run into the streets. He was held back. He and Chioma are inconsolable,” the source noted.
It is reported that all friends, staff and colleagues have been banned from visiting Davido’s father’s house where he and Chioma are held.
The singer and Chioma Rowland, recently marked their son’s third birthday. Whilst, the family is yet to issue a statement about the incident, the sad news has since thrown social media into mourning.
