The Lagos State Police Command has stormed the house of singer Davido following the reported death of his son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
The command’s spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, said that all members of the singer’s domestic staff were in police custody.
The DMW boss and his fiance, Chioma Rowland, were away from the house when the boy drowned.
Recall that the incident happened at the pool within Davido’s residence on Banana Island, Lagos.
The boy was said to have been rushed to a hospital in Lekki where he was confirmed dead by one of the doctors.
Hundeyin said preliminary investigation was ongoing to unravel what led to the boy’s death.
He said, “Domestic staff at Davido’a home have been taken to the station to give their own account of what happened. I wouldn’t call that arrest yet.
“If after they all give their own account of what happened and after preliminary investigations, if anyone of them is found culpable, the person will now be placed under arrest.”
The singer and his fiancée, Chioma Avril Rowland are still keeping mum over their son’s death.
Benjamin Hundeyin, the command’s PRO, disclosed that some staff members were being questioned.
He said the staffers were being investigated for negligence to ascertain which of them was culpable in the case.
“There is not much to say. Some domestic staff members were brought in for questioning to find out what they know about it. Anybody found culpable or guilty of negligence will stay back and assist in the ongoing investigation,” he said.
