Nigerian superstar singer, David Adeleke, known professionally as Davido, has revealed that his father bribed him to go back to school.
The DMW boss and son of Nigerian business tycoon, Adedeji Adeleke, made the revelation in a recent interview.
According to him, although his father loved education and wanted him to go back to school, he was not interested.
He said he initially dropped out of school and even ran away from home, but was eventually forced to return to complete his studies when his father made him a juicy deal.
The deal was that if he attends school from Mondays to Fridays, his father would build him a top-notch studio and give him money to shoot music videos on weekends.
“I was forced back to uni. I was kind of bribed,” he said.
“My dad is just big on education. The first place I came to when I ran from home was London. From there I came back to Nigeria and my dad wanted me to go to school ask so I was like ‘What is in it for me?’.
“He said if I go to school, he has a land not far; he will build me a studio. But I should go to school from Mondays to Fridays and on weekends, work in the studio during the weekend. It was a world-class studio. He will give me money to shoot some videos. He added.
