Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has stated that he is from a respectful family, contrary to what some people think.

He explained that his occasional misdemeanours as a celebrity do not imply that he did not have a suitable upbringing.

On Saturday, Davido stated this during a courtesy visit to the Olu of Warri in Delta State.

“I was brought up by great parents. I come from a very respectful family but sometimes, as OBO [star], I may act out of place,” he said.

It should be recalled that Wizkid recently shaded Davido’s family, claiming that the ‘OBO’ crooner wasn’t raised well.

“When u see people wey dem papa and family train, u go know! U don’t see my uncle dancing online!” Wizkid wrote on his X handle, alluding to Davido’s uncle, Governor Ademola Adeleke, who is known as the ‘Dancing Governor’ because of his numerous dance videos online.
