32nd birthday: Davido announces N300m donation to orphanages

• Afrobeat star David Adeleke popularly known as Davido’s 32nd birthday is coming up soon and he would love to celebrate it specially this year.
• Although the crooner had already mentioned that he would be throwing a concert in Atlanta to celebrate his Big day, he shared fresh information.
• The singer went on his official X page to reveal the big plans he has in store, promising to share more details soon.

Afrobeats star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has announced that he will be commemorating his 32nd birthday with a N300 million donation to orphanages.

The singer disclosed this via his X handle on Monday morning.

The DMW record label boss explained that the donation would be made to orphanages and a charity that fights against drug abuse among youths.

Davido promised to share more details in subsequent posts. The OBO crooner wrote:

“Once again, for my birthday this year, we are donating to orphanages and a charity that helps young people stay away from drug abuse & addiction. This year is N300m. Details to follow soon.”

This is not the first time Davido has donated to charity in commemoration of his birthday.

In November 2021, Davido donated N250m to 292 orphanages in celebration of his 29th birthday.

In May 2024, the Coalition of Orphanages and Children’s Homes in Nigeria (COCHIN) confirmed Afrobeats star, David Adeleke better known as Davido’s generous donation to the body.

COCHIN extended heartfelt appreciation to the singer in a letter written to him through its president, Dr. Eze Ajoku, and posted via OBO’s social media pages.

The appreciation letter was issued shortly after  Davido launched his meme coin, which reportedly crashed in value shortly after.

It may be recalled that in February, Davido pledged to donate a whopping sum of N300 million to orphanages in Nigeria.
