“David Alone Is Worth More Than ₦500 Billion” — Davido’s Brother Sparks Reactions With Bold Claim
Adewale Adeleke, elder brother of Nigerian music superstar Davido, has stirred conversations online after making a jaw-dropping comment about his brother’s alleged net worth.
The HKN boss had taken to social media to share a photo featuring himself, Davido, and other members of the HKN Gang at an event. He captioned the post simply: “HKN GANG!”
Moments later, a fan commented under the post saying,
“Over ₦500 billion naira in one picture ❤️🔥.”
In a surprising response, Adewale replied:
“David alone is worth more than ₦500 billion naira…”
The statement instantly set social media abuzz, with fans debating whether the billionaire claim was exaggerated or possibly true — given Davido’s global success, endorsements, and family background.
Davido, who recently wrapped up his Timeless Tour, has built an empire through music, record label investments, fashion ventures, and endorsements from brands like Puma, Martell, and Pepsi. Many fans believe Adewale’s statement isn’t far-fetched, citing the singer’s consistent luxury lifestyle, philanthropy, and massive global following.
Opinion:
While the exact figure remains unverified, Adewale’s bold remark highlights just how much influence and financial weight Davido commands in today’s entertainment industry. But beyond the numbers, it’s inspiring to see how far Nigerian music has come — from humble beginnings to producing stars whose wealth now rivals global icons.
Still, the conversation around Davido’s worth reminds us that true value goes beyond money — it’s about legacy, impact, and how many lives one uplifts along the way. And in that regard, Davido continues to prove he’s truly “OBO” — Omo Baba Olowo — in more ways than one. 💎
