Autopsy confirms Davido’s son, Ifeanyi, drowned

The Lagos State Police Command on Saturday said autopsy conducted on the corpse of Ifeanyi Adeleke confirmed that the three-year-old died as a result of drowning.

 

It was reported earlier this week that Ifeanyi drowned at his father’s Banana Island home on Monday, October 31 while his parents were attending a family function at Ibadan, Oyo State.

The police who arrested some housekeepers at Davido’s home had disclosed that an autopsy will be carried out to ascertain how the toddler died.

The police also said two suspects arrested in connection with the tragic incident are still being quizzed.

 

“The two suspects are still with us. Autopsy has been concluded. The autopsy confirmed that he (Ifeanyi) died by drowning,” Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Benjamin Hundeyin told Channels Television on Saturday.

On whether the two principal suspects will be charged in court, the police spokesman said, “I don’t want to preempt that. Investigation is still ongoing.”

Hundeyin also debunked rumours that actress Eniola Badmus was arrested in connection with the case.

The police spokesperson Hundeyin said:

 “Autopsy has been concluded. It confirms the boy (Ifeanyi) drowned.”

Some artistes and Very Important Persons (VIPs) including Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and his wife had commiserated with the Adeleke family over the traumatic experience just as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State suspended political activities over the sad occurrence.

Davido was one of the key players to the victory of his uncle, Ademola Adeleke of the PDP over Governor Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress during the Osun State Governorship Election in July 2022.
