Afrobeats superstar Davido has spoken about how the painful loss of his 3-year-old son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, in 2022 completely changed his outlook on life.
Ifeanyi tragically drowned in a swimming pool at the singer’s Banana Island home in Lagos in October that year — a moment that shook fans across the world.
In a recent interview with ABC News’ Rocsi Diaz, Davido revealed that the tragedy gave him a new perspective, both on life and his music career. He said stepping away from the spotlight for a while allowed him to reflect and refocus.
“Stepping away after losing my son and being able to look back on my career gave me a refocus on how I wanted to move forward. It changed my life,” he shared.
The singer also spoke about how he and his wife, Chioma, found the strength to keep going, a journey that has now inspired many people.
“I know how many who randomly come to me at the airport to tell me how my strength has inspired them in hard times. I was telling my wife the other day that I’m proud of how we bounced back. Now, we have twins. They are big and shouting everywhere. For us to be able to go through the loss of our son and be able to bounce back in a major way is huge,” he said.
Phyna has just knocked out Nkechi Blessing in Round 4 at the Chaos in the Ring celebrity boxing match in Lagos.
Phyna, whose real name is Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, stopped Nkechi Blessing in their scheduled four-round celebrity contest at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island. After the fight, the former Big Brother Naija winner named Nollywood actress, Etinosa Idemudia, as her next target, claiming that she had been disturbing her through her direct messages (DMs).
Etinosa accepted the challenge, setting up the possibility of another celebrity boxing contest. Phyna also announced that she intends to pursue professional boxing, indicating that her appearance against Nkechi could be the beginning of a longer career in the sport.

Another Nollywood actor, Chijioke Nwokafor, popularly known as CJay Nwoks is dead.
He died on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, at an undisclosed hospital in the Badore area of Lagos State.
The sad news was announced by actress Nkechi Blessing, who recently cast CJay as the lead actor in her new film.
Speaking on why the film will no longer be released, Nkechi, who was seen crying in a video on her Instagram page, said, “it took me a lot to do this video because we won’t be dropping the movie again by 5pm.
Right now, I’m in the hospital in Badore. I just lost CJay. CJay is dead. I don’t even know where to start.”
The cause of his death is still very sketchy as at the time of filing this report.
