How Davido paid school fees of other students while studying at Babcock

Top Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido is often touted as the Nigerian celebrity with the biggest heart and apparently, it did not start today.

Davido’s former Head of Department at Babcock university, Olusegun Ojuola, Davido, revealed that the musician paid the fees of some indigent students in the school.

He made the revelation during an interview, while also sharing some of Davido’s fondest memories before he graduated in 2015.

Ojuola described the DMW boss as a “unique student” who was liked not just for his popularity but also for his personality.

“His stay in school has also been a blessing to some indigent students whom the Lord has used David to pay their school fees,” he said.

The lecturer revealed that the ‘FEM’ crooner also had his own struggles in school.

Ojuola said; “Yeah. The first was the day he wore a ragged jeans to school and I chased him out of my office and told him to leave the faculty immediately.

“He was quite visibly shaken and since then he never wore that stuff to school. Another is that sometimes, when he had shows and he tried to play truancy and begged me to tell the dad that he was in school, I always refused and told him I would never lie. So he caught that message and I made him to make up for missed classes.”
