He made this revelation while speaking in an interview on Famouz Timez, he talked about how he was scared to tell his father, Deji Adeleke about his passion for music.
According to Davido, his family has laid down rules regarding career and work, such that whenever each of them graduate from the University, his father either employs them in one of his companies or gets the person a job in a firm owned by one of his rich friends.
