Friday, January 16, 2026 - Anu Adeleke, the young woman whose mother has insisted for years was fathered by singer Davido, has written publicly to ask for a DNA test.
Anu, who is now a teen, said she has been bullied for years
and laughed at by her peers whenever she tells them Davido is her father.
Her mother has also insisted for years that Davido is the
father of her child.
In an Instagram post shared today, Jan. 15, Anu tagged
Davido and asked him to submit himself for a DNA test to establish
paternity.
She wrote: "I am a bit late into the 15th day of the
month but I’ve been busy getting back to school after the holidays with family
and friends.
"This year I become a teenager. My mom and grandma has
always educated me on being a responsible teen. No drugs, alcohol, bad company
and bad behavior.
"Today I drafted a letter I wrote from the depth of my
heart not with help from my relatives. As I grow older I want to establish my
identity. I was bullied in school since I was 6-years-old and cried home daily.
Other students laughed at me when I told them my father was Mr David Adeleke. I
went through a lot of mental anguish and visited a medical professional to
protect my mental health. It was a sad challenging time in my life.
"This page was not online for 5 years as my mom never
updated this account since it was handed over to us. We went through a lot.
Despite the challenges, I still excelled to the top of the class and became the
class prefect. We posted some of my report cards on this page. Now that I’m in
secondary school and still excelling in my studies, I don’t talk about my
family history anymore.
"However on that note as I transition into a young
woman, I am respectfully asking Mr David Adeleke Singer @davido for a DNA test
to establish my identity. This test is between my dad and I. It is something I
want. It is something that’s the right thing to do. Please sir, consider my
request once you read this post. I also sent it to your DM.
"Thank you to all Nigerians who have given me emotional
support for the last 7 years. This DNA test is the right thing to do for
me.
"God Bless you Mr Adeleke."
