The Lagos State Police Command has revealed that eight domestic workers were brought in for questioning in connection with the death of musician, Davido’s son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
This was confirmed by the state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin. He stated that the domestic workers’ narrations would assist the command in determining the circumstances surrounding the death of the child.
He also stated that anyone not found culpable would be released immediately, adding the ones found culpable of negligence would be held back to assist the command in the ongoing investigation.
The police PRO said, “His (Ifeanyi’s) death is confirmed. His (Davido’s) domestic workers have been brought in for questioning and anybody found not culpable will be allowed to go immediately. About eight of them were brought in to narrate their version of what happened to assist us in getting what really happened.”
He continued, “At the end of their narrations, whoever that is found not guilty of negligence or not culpable in anyway will be allowed to go. Anybody found culpable will stay back to assist us in further investigation. The domestic workers are about eight that were brought in.”
Earlier today, reports flooded the internet that Ifeanyi reportedly drowned in a swimming pool at his father’s residence in the Banana Island area of Lagos State.
The three-year-old was then rushed to a hospital in the Lekki, where he was confirmed dead.
Neither Davido nor Chioma, his mother, have said anything on the matter.
Ifeanyi’s death is coming only a few days after his parents threw him a birthday party to celebrate his third year.
