‘Never question God’ – Singer Davido reflects on father’s advice

Nigerian music sensation Davido, born David Adeleke, recently opened up about how his father’s teachings on faith and spirituality have helped him navigate life’s challenges.

Speaking in an interview with Rollingout, the artist revealed that growing up in a Christian household profoundly influenced his outlook.

Davido credited his father for instilling in him the belief that God’s plan is unquestionable, a lesson that has guided him during difficult moments.

“My dad always told me, ‘Never question God,’” he shared, adding that this perspective has provided him with resilience and clarity during tough times.

The globally celebrated singer emphasized the importance of his father’s advice and how it continues to shape his life and career.

This insight sheds light on the deep-rooted values behind Davido’s success and enduring connection to his faith.

He mentioned that his dad’s advice to never question God has helped him get through challenges.

“My dad is very successful, but he’s an elder in the church. I grew up as a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. I attended a Christian college.

“I overcame a lot of challenges because of my dad. Initially, I did not understand, but now I’ve come to the realization. I was angry. Sometimes, I was like, ‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ And my dad told me that you can’t question God.

“I was like, ‘What do you mean you can’t question God?’ And then a year later [after the death of my son, Ifeanyi], we had twins, the biggest album of my career came, and my first Grammy nominations came. Then it started to make sense. People go through different challenges, but just know that God has your back,” he said.
