Anu Adeleke, who has claimed to be the daughter of Afrobeats star Davido, has publicly asked the singer to undergo a DNA test to formally establish her identity. She shared the request on Instagram on Thursday, alongside a picture of herself, in a heartfelt post reflecting on her personal journey.
Anu recounted the challenges she has faced growing up, including being bullied at school from the age of six for claiming Davido as her father. She described the emotional strain she endured and how she sought help from a medical professional to protect her mental health. Despite these difficulties, she said she excelled academically, becoming class prefect and consistently performing at the top of her class.
Addressing Davido directly, she wrote:
“As I transition into a young woman, I am respectfully asking Mr David Adeleke Singer @davido for a DNA test to establish my identity. This test is between my dad and I. It is something I want. It is something that’s the right thing to do. Please sir, consider my request once you read this post. I also sent it to your DM.”
Anu also thanked Nigerians who have supported her over the years:
“Thank you to all Nigerians who have given me emotional support for the last 7 years. This DNA test is the right thing to do for me.”
Her post highlights her determination to confirm her identity while emphasizing her resilience, growth, and commitment to her studies and personal well-being.
