Davido, a famous Nigerian singer, stopped his show in Umuahia, Abia State, on June 27, 2025, to talk to a fan who had brought a baby to a very crowded event. He said that what he did was wrong and could hurt people.
The event happened at Don Lulu’s launch party, where Davido was the main act. The musician, who has won awards, stopped playing in the middle of his set when he saw a small child being held up high above everyone else.
Davido spoke to the parent from the stage, and it was clear that he was upset. “Why did you bring a kid here?” He said she was a bad person and that he was worried about the child’s safety in the loud, busy place.
A lot of people saw the video that was shot on a cell phone and shared it online. A lot of people praised the artist for putting the child’s health and safety ahead of performance art.
People know Davido for his songs “Unavailable,” “Fall,” and “FEM.” Through his charitable work, especially the David Adeleke Foundation, he has also made a big difference in society. The group helps people in Nigeria get medical care, scholarships, and other kinds of help when they need it.
Since becoming a father, Davido’s public image has changed even more. He often talks about what it’s like to be a parent, and the way he acted on stage in Umuahia made the moment feel more real. A lot of people thought the break was a sign that the artist’s role was changing, not just as a performer but also as a father and supporter of duty.
