Nearly a year after losing their three-year-old son Ifeanyi, Davido and his wife Chioma welcomed twins – a boy and a girl – last week.
The Nigerian singer confirmed the news in a televised interview in New York last Saturday, days after social media was awash with the news.
“And it was in the same month – my son passed last year October, my wife gave birth this year October – it’s crazy,” he said.
Ifeanyi died on October 31, 2022, after drowning in a swimming pool.
Davido said his faith and his loved ones helped him through the grief.
When he and Chioma found out they were having twins, the singer said, they were “shaking”.
