Davido Blows Hot, Tells Alleged Daughter, Mother To Leave Him Alone After Multiple DNA Tests

Nigerian music superstar Davido has reacted angrily to a viral claim from a teenage girl alleging to be his daughter, who publicly requested a DNA test. Responding to a tweet from an influencer that read, “A daughter asking the father for a DNA test will really break and touch the father’s heart,” Davido wrote: “After 5 DNA tests … she Dey crase … her and her mom better leave me the fuck alone and go find her papa.” When a user asked if he knew the girl’s mother, the singer responded: “Never met the bitch … except when we went for the DNA … very stupid behavior. I will soon treat their FK … 5 fucking hospitals just to be clear … the mom needs to go to jail … I don’t blame the poor girl.” Davido later defended himself further, stating: “Yes, I chose 3 hospitals and they chose their own two hospitals … all came out negative. This is the last time I’m speaking on this nonsense.” The controversy arose after Anu Adeleke, the teenager claiming to be his daughter, requested a DNA test to confirm her parentage. Reports indicate that five separate tests have already been conducted, all reportedly negative, though her mother has disputed the results. The singer’s tweets have sparked heated debate online, with fans divided between supporting Davido’s strong response and criticizing his language and approach to the sensitive matter.

Billionaire daughter Sharon Adeleke has shared an honest reflection on her struggles with success, wealth, and self-doubt. In a recent post, she revealed that despite having access to opportunities, networks, and funding most people can only dream of, she often felt frustrated that success didn’t come as easily as she expected.
