Davido has revealed how his father's behaviour towards him changed after he lost his mother at a tender age.

The renowned singer who shared details of his relationship with his billionaire dad with Real 92.3 FM disclosed that his parent became overprotective of him after his mother passed away.

According to Davido, the change in his dad may be a result of a promise made to his late mother.

“I come from a family where there is oh ‘go to school and after, you go work for dad’.

“I am from a Christian, business family. My dad didn’t know I was doing music till like two years after I started recording. He saw it and he was like ‘How sad’.

“I look up to him. He is like everything to me. I didn’t want to always disappoint him.

“All my older brothers and sisters had graduated with a Master’s degree. I was expected to do the same.

“I think it was out of fear. He loved me so much. My mum passed on when I was really young and till today I always feel like he made a promise to mum like ‘take care of my baby’.

“That type. He is always overprotective.

“He is a man that has lived his life in a certain way for so long. I am the first-generation entertainer in my family.

“So, for somebody of that calibre. He’s a billionaire. He is thinking ‘Why are you wasting your time? Just go to school and come work’”, he said.
