Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has narrated how his dad, Chief Adedeji, sent policemen to arrest him several times in the early days of his career.

The ‘OBO’ crooner said his dad was initially against his musical career and wanted him to focus on his education.

Davido revealed this when he featured on Ebro in the Morning Show on Hot 97FM, New York, United States on the heels of his album release. The station shared the interview on Youtube on Friday. Davido said his dad, at different times, sent cops to arrest him and disrupt shows he was billed to perform at.

“He sent police to get me… like he sees a billboard; for example, ‘Davido performing, Wizkid performing’. He would send police to arrest everybody – the show promoter, if you’re there ,” he told the FM station as he and the show presenters laughed about it.“He kept on doing it. Then there was one time. This is where I knew that ‘Oh I’m lit!’. They came and got me. Then I’m in the cell and the dude that got the keys his phone rings, and it’s my song! I said ‘that’s me’. He said ‘you’re Davido?’.
