Lowkey celebrations in 30BG camp as Davido hits 30

Nigerian music star, David Adeleke, famous as Davido, had looked forward to his 30th birthday bash with so much fanfare and ecstacy but recent happenings in his life did not permit him to throw up a lavish party for himself.

Information gathered by R revealed that his whole team led by some of his close allies and family members were said to have been planning a surprise birthday party in Atlanta and Dubai for the IF singer.

Those who know the family would confirm that visiting Dubai for the end of the year review of 30BG activities is sacrosanct and they had hinged the party on this premise.

But in a twist, fate punctured the celebrations that would have ushered Davido into 30 following the tragic death of his son, Ifeanyi in October.

Findings showed that while Davido and his wife, Chioma have been getting a lot of moral support from family members to bear the pain of losing their only son, there has been a quiet discomfort in their Banana Island residence in Lagos.

It was also gathered that Davido instructed all his team including staff working for him to keep his family affairs off their lips as he would not want any unapproved information about him or his wife leaked to the public or being a subject of discourse in the media.

With his uncle, Ademola Adeleke’s inauguration as Osun State governor coming up in Osun State today, nothing within the camp of the singer suggested Davido would be part of the celebration.

All plans to celebrate the 30th birthday celebration in style have been cancelled as the mood in their home remained pensive as of the time of piecing together this report.

R reliably gathered that grieving Davido ought to have made an official statement about the loss of Ifeanyi but his dad Deji Adeleke reportedly told the singer to halt such plans and not put himself in the news just yet.

A source who didn’t want his name mentioned informed R that the Adeleke’s family are standing strong behind their super star son and giving him all the support he needs.

It was gathered that the celebrations ahead of Davido’s 30th birthday bash had started since January with the singer planning to unveil new projects and throw a big party for himself in different cities.

He was looking forward celebrating his birthday with his uncle’s swearing-in as the governor but all those plans have been shelved for now, another close source hinted.

“Davido will not be going to Osun for Adeleke’s inauguration. He has instructed his team to be on ground to support his uncle in his absence.”
