David Adeleke, better known by his stage name Davido, has revealed that his Afrobeats colleague, Ayodeji Balogun, also known as Wizkid, called him every week after the death of his son, Ifeanyi.

Davido revealed this in an interview with Hot 97FM’s Morning Show, which aired on Saturday.

He claimed that he and Wizkid had a 12-year feud and that they only started talking again after his son died.

“With Wiz, over the years we had a rift, for 12 years we had a rift up until recently he chatted up and I am seeing the positivity,” he said in the video.

“I am seeing the change in the industry a little bit because everybody is calming down, especially with my situation; the tragic situation that happened, he called me every week since it happened,” he added.

Recall that Davido and his fiancee, Chioma Rowland, lost their only son, Ifeanyi in November 2022, shortly after his third-year birthday.

It was reported that the boy drowned in a pool at his father’s house in Banana Island and was rushed to a hospital at Lekki where he was pronounced dead.
