Remember how the news of the passing of Davido’s son, Ifeanyi, shocked his supporters and fans? Late at night, the small boy’s unexpected death went viral, with admirers reacting with anguish and dismay.
Information indicates that the young child, Ifeanyi, died tragically after drowning in the family’s swimming pool at home. Davido stayed off social media following the news of his son’s passing, only breaking his silence a few days ago with the release of his album.
In a CNN interview, Davido discussed how he dealt with the loss of his kid.
He said: “Personally, with me, the support I got from people was one of the things that helped me stand up again”.
“At some point, I couldn’t open my Instagram for weeks. One day, I just checked it and I saw messages from every kind of person in the world, from politicians to sportsmen, to other musicians, to presidents, I was like, ‘you’re fine, you see everybody is rooting for you.’
“That was one thing that really made me strong enough to stand up again, get back in the studio, and do what I love.”
