On Sunday, D’Banj’s one year old son passed in a swimming accident that has brought fans and music industry personnel to mourn with the musician.
When Davido took the stage at the 2018 BET Awards after winning the Best International Act Award, he was quick to acknowledge the passing of D’Banj’s son and state his importance in revolutionizing the music scene in Nigeria.
Other artists like Mr Eazi, Wizkid have also taken to social media platforms to offer their condolences.
Prayers to my big brother @iamdbanj & his Family!!! May God provide Strength & comfort. ❤️
