Nigerian music superstar Davido, born David Adedeji Adeleke, is marking his 32nd birthday today, November 21, 2024, with an extraordinary act of kindness. Continuing his tradition of philanthropy, Davido has pledged ₦300 million to support orphanages and a charity focused on preventing drug abuse among Nigerian youth. This donation comes through the Davido Adeleke Foundation (DAF), which he established in 2022 to support vulnerable children and other charitable causes.
This year’s initiative builds on Davido’s previous charitable efforts, which include a notable ₦250 million donation in 2021 and ₦237 million in 2023, both directed toward orphanages across Nigeria. His consistent efforts have positively impacted thousands of children and earned widespread praise for his dedication to social causes.
Davido announced this pledge via his social media platforms, stating his commitment to using his birthday as an opportunity to give back. The funds aim to provide resources and support to children in orphanages and combat youth challenges like drug addiction. More details about the allocation of this year’s donation are expected to be shared soon.
This remarkable gesture has been celebrated by fans and admirers, who commend Davido not just for his musical achievements but for his humanitarian contributions that inspire hope and positive change
