According to BCC, the singer, whose real name is David Adeleke, and his fiancée, Chioma Rowland, a popular chef and influencer, lost their three-year-old son, Ifeanyi Adeleke. Police confirmed the boy drowned in the swimming pool in his parents’ Lagos home Monday.
Police officers in Nigeria questioned eight domestic workers after the boy was discovered..Police spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin informed the BBC that one of the workers notified police at 10:00 p.m. local time Monday.
“We are reviewing the CCTV cameras to get additional information about the circumstances of his death,” Hundeyin said. “His body has been deposited in the morgue. We are in touch with his parents. In fact, they were with us last night.”
Davido, a popular afrobeat singer, has three other children. He announced last month that he and Rowland would be getting married next year.

“I pray with all my heart that God grants you perfect health and pure happiness for as long as humanly possible. You will grow to be greater than Me , Happy birthday, son @davidifeanyiadeleke !!! #BIG3 ????????????????????????????”
