David Adeleke, popularly called Davido, a well-known Nigerian singer, has postponed his planned Are We African Yet (A.W.A.Y.) festival following the death of his son Ifeanyi Adeleke.
In a statement posted on the festival’s Twitter account, the singer’s management publicly apologized to the fans for the disappointment and pledged to make it up to them.
The statement claims that Davido wants to spend more time with his family during this difficult period of bereavement.
The statement reads: “We have made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone A.W.A.Y Festival until November 18, 2023. To all ticket buyers, your tickets will be honoured for the 2023 date. Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to seeing you all in the near future.”
The musician reportedly made his first appearance on Instagram on Monday after deactivating his late son’s account and unfollowing DJ Cuppy and Femi Otedola out of grief.
