My Dad Taught Me To Have Complete Faith In God - Davido

By Oluwarantimi Oludase

Afrobeats star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed that his dad taught him to always put his trust in God.

The "Feel" crooner made this revelation during a recent podcast with Rollout, the singer explained that he was from a Christian home, and he also attended a christian college.

He added that his father instilled christian virtues in him, and encouraged him never to question God despite every challenge.

Davido said:
“My dad is very successful, but he’s an elder in the church. I grew up as a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. I attended a Christian college.

“I overcame a lot of challenges because of my dad. Initially, I did not understand, but now I’ve come to the realization. I was angry. Sometimes, I was like, ‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ And my dad told me that you can’t question God.

“I was like, ‘What do you mean you can’t question God?’ And then a year later [after the death of my son, Ifeanyi], we had twins, the biggest album of my career came, and my first Grammy nominations came. Then it started to make sense. People go through different challenges, but just know that God has your back."
