Davido mentioned that his father advised him against questioning God.

Nigerian singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, recently shared profound insights into how his father’s teachings about faith in God have shaped his resilience in the face of adversity. In a candid interview with Rollingout, Davido discussed the significant impact of his Christian upbringing, particularly the lessons imparted by his father, who is both a successful businessman and an elder in the church.

Davido recounted his experiences growing up in a Seventh-day Adventist household, where faith and spirituality were integral to daily life. He emphasized that the guidance he received from his father has been instrumental in helping him navigate the complexities of life. “I overcame a lot of challenges because of my dad,” he stated, reflecting on moments of doubt and anger, particularly following the tragic loss of his son, Ifeanyi.

The artist acknowledged the struggle of questioning divine purpose during difficult times, a sentiment many can relate to. However, he ultimately found clarity in his father’s wisdom: “You can’t question God.” This lesson resonated deeply with him, especially as he experienced a resurgence in his career, marked by the birth of twins and significant accolades, including Grammy nominations.

Davido’s journey serves as a testament to the power of faith and the importance of familial guidance in overcoming life’s trials. His reflections remind us that, despite the challenges we may face, maintaining faith can provide strength and perspective. As he aptly noted, “People go through different challenges, but just know that God has your back.”
